Iora; the Retreat HOTEL $$$ (%262411; www.kazirangasafari.com; snowmass music festival s/d from 3300/3900; aiWs) Not quite as discreet as you may imagine a place named the Retreat to be, this vast new place, to the east of the tourist complex, is almost as big as the national park itself, but despite this its deliciously quiet and subtly decorated rooms offer superb value for money. However, if you value a personal snowmass music festival service you d best look elsewhere.

A peaceful lane winding through forested hills and tribal settlements links Ziro to Pasighat via Along. Highlights are dizzying suspension footbridges and thatched Adi villages around Along. Do be warned though that the attractions along this route are very low-key, the villagers around Along are much less welcoming snowmass music festival to foreigners snowmass music festival (and they don t sport the Apatanis tattoos and nose plugs) and the route, which involves three full days of travel, is very tiring. Unless you re going to be heading from Along to fabulous Mechuka or remote eastern snowmass music festival towns and valleys such as Tuting or the Namdapha National Park then you may find this route something of a let down.
