When we explore the valley in the day, I am certain that the Ziro valley must have been like this before our ancestors converted it into a more habitable place that we enjoy today. A sense of gloom overpower me. How hard they must have worked. What a struggle it must have been! Cutting down trees, aligning the irrigation channels.
This is Talle Valley. I am visiting the place after five years. Lots of changes. The track from Pange is better. The Range Officer is trying to make the road motorable. I doubt this is a good step, though. A beautiful and cosy camp house has been constructed. This, I think, is a welcome sign. It is good to get cosy after four hours of trekking.
Welcome to Talle Valley.
Its not a good idea to make the road motorable..we will have groups of youths having picnics and such leaving shattered beer bottles all over.
ReplyDeleteAlternatively amateur hunters with telescoped 0.22 rifles all over the place.
buru, i agree with you. it is best to develop a good trekking route to talle camp. i feel it more after visiting it recently.
ReplyDeleteHi Kanno,
ReplyDeleteI'll be in Assam in Jan for some wedding related business. Was looking for some places to visit in Arunachal.
Came across your blog and loved the description.
Been looking for info on how to get to Talle, but not finding much info on the net. wondering if you would be able to help me out?
Regards,
Robin
@Robin. Thanks for visiting.
ReplyDeleteTalle is not yet developed as a tourist place, but you can always visit the place after due permission from the concerned departments. First, you will need an innerline permit to enter Arunachal Pradesh. Ziro is 3 hours drive from North Lakhimpur in Assam and Talley camp is a full day's trek (30 km) from Ziro. Welcome and hope you will enjoy as I did.
ILP should not be an issue, but for trekking within or to Talle require any kind of permission and where could we get it from? And how long would it take.
ReplyDeleteSorry for badgering you like this but I think there are only 3 or 4 sites on the net which even mention Talle.
Thanks anyway.
You may not need a formal permit, but need to inform the Range Officer. You may contact the Dy Chief Wildlife Warden at Naharlagun.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes.

However, there are exceptions.

is there any scope of people settling down in Talley Valley... so that crowded ziro can atleast be made into two twin township..... pliz reply
ReplyDelete@tonmy. Talley Valley falls under Talle Wildlife Sanctuary. Ziro town will always be crowded as all towns/cities are. Nobody will be able to force people to settle down anywhere, but expansion of the town will take place naturally. And we have lots of areas for such natural expansion.
