Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1

Guwahati to Sohra

Our driver picks you up from your hotel or home in Guwahati in the morning. Drive from Guwahati to Shillong (about 99 km, 2 hrs) and from Shillong to Sohra (Cherrapunji) (about 53 km, 1 hr). Check in at your hotel in Sohra (Cherrapunji). Drive up through Shillong and across the plateau to Sohra, stopping at the Mawkdok valley viewpoint. See the Nohkalikai falls in the afternoon light. Overnight stay in Sohra (Cherrapunji).

The double-decker root bridge

Today's travel: from Sohra (Cherrapunji) to Tyrna (about 5 km, 15 min) and from Tyrna to Sohra (Cherrapunji) (about 5 km, 15 min). Start early from the road end at Tyrna and walk down about 3,500 steps through the forest, across two wire suspension bridges over clear blue rivers, to the village of Nongriat. Here the Khasi people have trained the roots of rubber fig trees across a stream over generations to make the double-decker living root bridge. Rest by the natural pools below it, walk on to Rainbow Falls if you have the energy (about an hour and a half more each way), and climb back to Tyrna by late afternoon; the round trip takes five to eight hours on foot. Overnight stay in Sohra (Cherrapunji).

An easy day after the climb: see the Mawsmai cave, the Seven Sisters falls, and the Arwah cave with fossils in its rock, and look out over the plains of Bangladesh from the edge of the plateau. Overnight stay in Sohra (Cherrapunji).
