  11. Which are the best short road trips in North East India by rented cars?

    1.Shillong to Cherrapunji: One of the shortest road trips in the country, the journey from Shillong to Cherrapunji is quite the allure. The journey across Meghalaya is not only scenic, but also full of adventure.

    There are several fantastic natural attractions that riddle the way through Cherrapunji : the horseshoe shaped Ward’s Lake is a charming stop, while the Elephant Falls and the Wah Kaba waterfalls promise to enchant all. There are several little diners and cafes along the way as well, for those that choose to stop for a bit of snacking.

    Distance:
    Approximately 54 kilometers
    Best time: October to February

    2.Gangtok to Nathula Pass via Lake Tsomgo:
    Nathula Pass requires a full day’s journey from Gangtok. Owing to its proximity to the country border, one needs to rent a vehicle from the car rental services in India located in Gangtok for rides that are equipped with necessary permits.

    The high-altitude road is a tricky one to navigate, and requires an experienced driver. One of the biggest attractions that the route crosses is the Tsomgo Lake, a stunning glacial lake located 40 kilometers outside Gangtok. From Tsomgo, the road travels to Nathula by the Baba Harbajan Singh Temple.

    Distance:
    Approximately 53 kilometers
    Best time: May to October

    3.Guwahati to Tawang:
    Traversing through some of North India’s most blessed landscapes, the journey between Guwahati and Tawang is a mesmerizing one. Although there are several buses making the journey every day, the road is especially enchanting when travelling on one’s own ride leased from any car rental in India.

    The short journey takes no more than 10 hours to complete when done without stops. However, to add to the trip, one could easily stop at any of the attractions that fall in the way, Bhalukpong and Dirang Valley being two such prominent landmarks.

    Distance:
    515 kilometers
    Best time: March to August

    4.Kalimpong to Zuluk:
    From one picturesque town to another, the route from Kalimpong to Zuluk promises to be a beautiful one. The route here traverses across several mountain villages, before moving to Zuluk via the scenic Sillery Gaon. The road crosses the 100-feet waterfall Que Khola, which is worth a stop.

    The road to Zuluk from Kalimpong can take around 3 to 4 hours. However, only Sikkim-based vehicles are allowed to traverse the route, and one must make sure to issue a ride from any car rental in India based in Sikkim.

    Distance:
    58 kilometers
    Best time: March to June

    5.Darjeeling to Pelling:
    Occasionally unpaved, the road from Darjeeling to Pelling promises a journey of a lifetime. There are several ways to travel between the two places, although driving on one’s ride leased from car rental services in India might be the best choice.

    The road to Pelling is riddled with fantastic views of the surrounding peaks, along with the occasional traditional eatery where one might stop for a quick bite and rest.

    Distance:
    Around 72 kilometers
    Best time: March to October
