Why February here

Grass ridges falling away into cloud-filled canyons, an hour from Shillong.

Laitlum means end of hills, and the name does the work: a grass ridge that drops away into steep canyons, often with cloud filling the gorge below. A short walk from the road end takes you to the best ledges; village paths descend into the gorge for trekkers.

What to do

Cloud inversions

Mornings when the canyon fills with white.
