India-Tibet border in South
Tibet and flows through
Bhalukpong circle of
West Kameng District,

Brahmaputra River, joining it at
Tezpur, just east of the

Map 1
The Kameng forms the boundary between
East Kamemg District and
West Kameng Districts and is also the boundary between the
Sessa and Eaglenest sanctuaries to its west and the
Pakke tiger reserve to the east.
Map 2 The
Dafla Hills are east and the
Aka Hills (home of
Aka tribe) are west of the Kameng River. The entire stretch of forest along the
Bhalukpong-
Bomdila highway on the west bank of the river in West Kameng has vanished in the last few years though the forest across the river continues to be in a healthy state.
Tributaries
The eastern half of Eaglenest-Sessa Wildlife sanctuaries is drained by the Tippi Naala (Tippi river) which joins Kameng river at the village of Tippi on the Bhalukpong-Bomdila highway. The other major rivers flowing through West Kameng District, the Tenga, Bichom and Dirang Chu, are also tributaries of the Kameng.
