Langpangkong Range

Langpangkong Range

The Langpangkong Range is one of the six major mountain ranges inhabited by the Ao people. It is located between the valleys of the Dikhu and Tzula rivers in the Mokokchung District of Nagaland, India.

An Ahom king who escaped from his capital (the present-day Sibsagar in Assam} due to court intrigues and rivalries, is believed to have taken refuge here. The cave where he apparently took shelter still remains in the area.

Tuli town and Changtongya are the important towns of this range. NH-61 runs all along the top of the range.
