About Meghalaya:
Meghalaya, meaning “abode of clouds,” is a land of misty hills, cascading waterfalls, and vibrant indigenous culture. Located in the northeastern part of India, it’s known for its cleanest villages, living root bridges, and untouched natural beauty. Among its hidden gems lies the less-travelled trail to Laitlum Canyon—a journey that captures both cultural richness and dramatic landscapes.
Laitlum Canyon Trek, Meghalaya:
The Laitlum Canyon Trek starts in a quiet Khasi village where traditional homes, sacred groves, and local life offer a rare peek into the region’s heritage. As you walk past fields and bamboo huts, the path gradually opens into pine forests and lush meadows. Over 7 hours, this easy-to-moderate trail leads you through changing terrains and finally opens up to the wide ridges of Laitlum. The name means “end of the hills,” and that’s exactly what you see—an endless sweep of cliffs, green valleys, and clouds brushing the gorge.
It’s not just the view that’s special—it’s the way the trail unfolds gently, offering quiet moments, fresh air, and photo-worthy stops. Ideal for beginners and casual hikers, this trek delivers the essence of Meghalaya in a single day.
