Longleng district (Pron:/ˈlɒŋˌlɛŋ/) is a hilly district located in the northern part of the Indian state of Nagaland. It is home to the Phom Nagas. It's headquarter is the Longleng town. The boundary of the district is well demarcated by natural rivers such as the Dikhu river. It is bounded by Mon district in the east; Assam in the north; Tuensang district in the south; and Mokokchung district in the west. The mount Yingnyiüshang in the south-eastern part of the district with an approximate height of 2500 meters above sea level is the highest peak.

The Yingnyiü mount is identified as biodiversity hotspot: it hosts species-rich tropical rain forest and supports diverse flora and fauna. It has the distinction of being one of the few places in Nagaland where virgin forests are still found. Along the sides of Dikhu river and Yongam River there are a number of tourist attractions for fishing and picnicking.[1]
