Mount Khülio-King
Significance
Mount Khülio-King is home to rich biodiversity. Abundant natural resources are still intact and human intervention is on the rise. Bird species like Blyth's Tragopan, the state bird of Nagaland can be found in the region surrounding Khülio and beyond the international border in Khiamniungan region. Flowers like Rhododendron, Mountain-ebony and Malberry trees are widely found across Khülio range. The mountain in the region plays a vital role in the lives of the people not only from the point of ecology but it provides a strategic location for defensive purposes for the people during the headhunting days.
Route
To visit and explore the peak which is relatively unknown and almost an unexplored mountain one has to either go to Choklangan or Wui Village, however, the road condition is bumpy and deplorable.
