2nd Highest Peak in Nagaland
Good for one day trekking. It will take 5 to 8 hours to reach the top depending on your fitness and experiences. Safer to take a local guide. Snow during Winter, Red and White Rhododendrons during Spring seasons. Beautiful sunrise view from the top. There is a camp site at halfway point. Collecting of flora and fauna strictly prohibited. On a clear day, you can see a number of Naga villages. Can also see the Western side of the beautiful Dzükou Valley.

Japfu Peak
It's one of the highest peak in the state. Surrounded by very mesmerizing beauty. A must visit site. Looks stunning even if seen from a distance.

Nagaland's Second Highest Mountain checked!
If you happen to be sojourning in Kohima (Nagaland’s largest hill station) for a few nights or attending the globally renowned Hornbill Festival (Dec 1st – Dec 10th), you will find yourself in a good position to tackle the iconic Japfu Peak (3,048 m), which is the second highest summit in Nagaland after Mount Saramati (3,826 m). Before climbing the mountain we undertook some online research and discovered that there was a serious paucity of information on how to actually climb the peak, the location of the trailhead, the distances involved and so forth. None of the locals or Indian travellers that we spoke to at the Hornbill Festival had a clue how to go about it either. So we wrote a in-depth guide after tackling this awesome peak in the land of Nagas! Do visit our website to read 'The Ultimate Guide On How To Climb Japfu Peak Without A Guide'. The purpose of this online guide is to provide you with all the facts and figures regarding Japfu peak so that you are in a good position to decide whether to hire a local guide or attempt the climb independently.

Jafpu peak failed trek
Japfu peak is located south of Kohima town, capital of Nagaland state, India. It is about 9500 feet high and located west of kigwema village on Nagaland-Manipur highway. This December we started our trekking from Kohima, hired a taxi for 600 rupees for dropping only at a point of road which curved as a hair pin manner near Japfu Christian College. We ascended up to the college, then entered Kigwema forest area, crossed pony firm. After that road devided one to the left towards a stream which goes to Japfu peak and right one which is a wrong trek. We took the right one and spent 2 hours there and finally came to the right trail. After walking an hour on a desolate valley trail went inside the forest. Then started real trekking, very steepy in dense forest. After an hour we reached in front of a cabin where signs of recent stay of people. Tgen come a man with camouflage with gun. We asked him about Japfu peak but the answer was disappointing- 3 hours. It was already 2 pm , not possible for going and returning. So, we finished our trek and returned. My suggestion is it is a two days trek for beginners.
