Begin your adventure by witnessing one of Meghalaya's marvels: the Living Root Bridges in Nongriat. These bridges are handmade by the Khasi people by manipulating the roots of rubber trees to grow in a certain direction. Ready yourself for a hike through the jungle with a steep descent of 2,500 steps to reach this attraction.
Head to Sohra (also known as Cherrapunji), one of the wettest places on earth with numerous waterfalls. Take a caving expedition in Krem Mawmluh. This cave system offers the most challenging trek in Meghalaya with underground streams, narrow passages and impressive formations.
Challenge yourself to a heart-pumping activity- the cliff jump of a lifetime at the highest waterfall in India. The Nohkalikai Falls plunges from a height of 1,115 feet, making it a breathtaking and adrenaline-pumping experience.
After the thrilling adventure at Nohkalikai Falls, experience another spectacular living root bridge – the Double Decker Root Bridge. Hike through the lush green forest, over babbling streams and impressive cliffs. You'll be rewarded with a magnificent view of the Double Decker Bridge that is sure to take your breath away.
Revel in the adrenaline rush of waterfall rappelling. Elephant Falls is a three-tiered waterfall with a natural pool where you can try waterfall rappelling and swim in crystal-clear waters. This is a must-try activity for adventure enthusiasts.
End your trip with a bang and indulge in an exhilarating kayaking experience at Umngot River in Dawki. Experience clear waters and witness the charming underwater marine life including beautiful red cherry shrimp called locally as Sohmyndoh. Enjoy the supremely peaceful island-dotted river while kayaking and relax surrounded by the charming hills.
If you have more time, head to Mawsynram, where you can have a picnic near stunning waterfalls and take a dip in natural pools. For thrill-seekers, try zip-lining at Mawkdok Dympep Valley and take in the views of Meghalaya's valleys and forests. If you have less time, skip one of the attractions but make sure to try at least one adrenaline-pumping activity during your stay.
