About Anini

Anini is a remote village in Dibang Valley district of Arunachal Pradesh, situated at an altitude of approximately 2100 meters in the eastern Himalayan foothills. It serves as a gateway to pristine alpine meadows, dense forests, and tribal territories largely untouched by mass tourism. The village offers glimpses of traditional Idu Mishmi culture alongside dramatic mountain terrain and biodiversity.

💡Why Visit?

Anini is one of India's most isolated and least-visited hill stations, offering authentic wilderness, untouched landscapes, and a genuine offbeat trekking experience for adventurous travellers seeking solitude and cultural immersion.
