There are getaways, and then there are journeys that stitch a family closer with each footstep on a forest trail, every shared gasp under a waterfall, and all the stories swapped over fireside dinners. This active family adventure through Meghalaya is a little bit wild, a little bit slow, and full of the kind of magic that only the outdoors can offer.
Beginning in the misty heights of Shillong and ending with one last sunset by the hills, this journey takes you through winding trails like the historic David Scott route, the rain-drenched cliffs of Sohra, secret villages tucked under the clouds, and deep river canyons that call for swims, kayaks, and starry camps. You’ll walk root bridges, jump into jungle pools, paddle down translucent rivers, and peer into the blue depths of Krem Chympe. But you’ll also slow down sharing pineapple slices with locals, hearing folk songs at sunset, and resting in family-friendly homestays that welcome you like old friends.
It’s a route made for families who love to explore together. And by the time you head home, with muddy shoes and full hearts, Meghalaya will have quietly become your family’s shared secret.
