Pass through

Pynursla in December

The trailhead town on the Bangladesh-border road.

Quick answer. Dry winter. Cold mornings, prime trekking/caving/camping season. For Pynursla specifically, December is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why December here

The practical stop between Shillong, Mawlynnong and Dawki, with its own canyon country.

Pynursla is the road town on the border highway: the practical fuel-and-food stop for the Mawlynnong-Dawki run, with community treks into the surrounding canyons and forest, and a quieter rhythm than the headline spots.

What to do

Community treks

Village-run canyon and forest walks.
