Hi @Himz ,
Thank you for sharing this amazing photo. Could you share more information about the place? Did you go on vacation or do you live close by? Did you go for a hike? Based on your photo, it looks quite high. Do you have any tips and advice you can share with us? I also enjoy hiking and I try to go when I have time.

Hi @DanniS
Meghalaya can be visited anytime of the year barring the monsoon months when it may be difficult to travel around. The ideal time is March to September when spring gives away to brief summer followed by cloudy monsoon when the hills turn green and the waterfalls find their rhythm.Internal communications are poor, and many areas remain isolated. There are no railways in Meghalaya. A national highway runs through the state from Guwahati (Assam) in the north to Karimganj (Assam) in the south. Shillong is served by a domestic airline handling short-haul, low-capacity routes at Umroi, about 18 miles (30 km) from Shillong; and in 2008 an airport opened at Tura, in the western part of the state.
The trekking opportunity in Meghalaya is outstanding for the fact that, the terrain is very challenging like in Himalayan areas but with the advantage of not being snow-wrapped. An added attraction is the possibility of intimating with many rare species of flora & fauna, rare to find elsewhere. There are many adventure tours for the purpose of trekking for the tourist offered by Meghalaya tourism. You can hire guides to walk through the most alluring and confusing terrains of the Meghalaya, which is characterised by flowing rivers, rolling hills and towering waterfalls.
