Due to recent heavy rains and landslides in Arunachal Pradesh's Anjaw district, the route from Walong to Dong Valley and the border villages of Kibithu and Kaho is currently impassable. Walong and Kibithu are cut off from main routes, and significant road damage, including a 250-meter stretch washed away between Tezu and Hayuliang, has severely impacted connectivity. Essential commodities, including fuel, are running out of stock. Restoration efforts are underway but are delayed by land compensation disputes, with full restoration expected to take at least a month. This 3-day motorcycle expedition, typically featuring India's first sunrise, Tilam Hot Springs, and a scenic ride along the Lohit River, is currently not feasible. Travelers should check local advisories for updates on road conditions and accessibility.
