How To Reach Star View Point

By Air: The nearest major airport is Silchar's Kumbhirgram Airport (IXS), which is approximately 84 KMS from Haflong. From the airport, you can hire a private taxi or take a shared cab to reach Haflong. The drive is scenic but can take around 3 to 4 hours due to the hilly terrain. The other alternative is Guwahati's Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (GAU), which is much further, about 330 KMS away. From Guwahati, one would need to take a direct taxi, bus, or connect via train.

By Train: Haflong is well-connected by a meter-gauge railway line that has recently been converted to broad gauge. The nearest major railway station is New Haflong Railway Station (NHLG), which is about 3 KMS from the town center. There are direct trains connecting New Haflong to major cities like Guwahati and Silchar. Once you arrive at the station, you can take a local auto-rickshaw or taxi into the town. Another important nearby station is Lumding Junction (LMG), which is a major railway hub.

By Road: Haflong is accessible by road from key cities in Assam and neighboring states. The town lies on a major road network. You can hire private taxis or take state-run or private bus services from Guwahati (330 KMS) or Silchar (84 KMS). The journey by road from Guwahati can take 8 to 10 hours, offering a very scenic, winding route through the hills. From Silchar, the journey is shorter and takes about 3 to 4 hours. The roads, though winding, are generally in reasonable condition.

By Local Transport: To reach the Star View Point from the center of Haflong town (Main Bazaar), the best option is local transport. Since the viewpoint is only about 0. 5 KMS away, you can easily walk for about 10-15 minutes, which is recommended for the fresh air and local experience. Alternatively, local auto-rickshaws or shared taxis are readily available in the town center and can take you directly to the viewpoint for a very nominal fare. Negotiate the fare before starting your journey.
