Spot fossils in

Arwah Cave in October

The cave with fossils in its walls.

Quick answer. Post-monsoon. Rivers and falls still strong, skies clearing, the harvest festival period begins. For Arwah Cave specifically, October is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why October here

A lit cave passage near Sohra with marine fossils, fish-scale rock patterns and a stream running through.

Arwah (Mawsmai-Arwah system) is the quieter, roomier cave near Sohra: a lit boardwalk passage with marine fossils embedded in the limestone, a stream underfoot and bigger chambers than Mawsmai.
