When i was visiting this region of Chin State Myanmar , the local told me to hike to the peak of Mt. Victoria. Back then , i thought the Victoria Mountain was called Witoriya Mountain , and i keep believing the mountain name is Witoriya Mountain . But , i realize that Witoriya Mountain is not that mountain name but Victoria after do some research in the internet. I keep searching Witoriya Mountain in the internet for few weeks to dig some information about it but fail. Then when i found the Mt. Victoria in Chin State and read the info about it , its look and sound familiar.
The Mt. Victoria peak at 3,053 metres ( 10 ,016 feet ) is the tallest peak in mountain Chin States and third highest in Myanmar. The mountain located near the border between Myanmar and India. The hike is not really hard because you can use or rent a motorbike to reach the hiking point and only take about 45 minutes hike to the peak. But , its gonna takes few hours to reach the hiking point from the town.
RIDING FROM TOWN TO HIKING POINT
We start our ride early in the morning . I think the ride is about 3 hours because i keep stop and taking picture , then continue and stop again. The early morning breeze is so cold and we use jacket to cover ourselves from the cold breeze . When the sun go up , the breeze become cold warm . The road is not that bad , but there is a lot of dust.
THE CHECK POINTS
Not many tourist come to Chin State because this place is very far and the road to reach here is not that good. In addition , there is no regular public car come here , the only easy way to come here is using the tourist guide , and the expenses to come here is quite high.
You can see some local come to Mt Victoria to enjoy the god creation. The best thing that you can see in Chin State is where the religion is dont have a huge gap like in other region. In victoria Mountain , you can see cross for the Christian , a small pagoda or stupa for the Hindu and Buddhist to pray.
