Before planning your adventure to Arunachal Pradesh, it's essential to understand the vastness of this remarkable state. Covering an area of approximately 83,743 km²—comparable to Austria in Europe—Arunachal is divided into two main regions: the High Himalayan Range (cool region) and the Sub-Himalayan Range (tropical region). This division significantly influences the weather conditions you can expect during your visit, allowing you to experience distinct climates as you travel from the tropical to the cooler zones. 
Seasons in Arunachal Pradesh

This makes Arunachal a perfect holiday destination for families, honeymooners, and solo travelers.
