How To Reach Dainthlen Falls
Mawsynram, Meghalaya, India
Details: Dainthlen Falls is one of the most powerful and culturally significant waterfalls in Meghalaya. Unlike many falls where you watch from a distance, here you can walk right onto the rocky bed of the river that feeds the plunge. The falls are named after a legendary giant snake called Thlen th at once terrorized the local villagers. According to Khasi folklore, the villagers finally caught and slaughtered the snake on the flat rocky surface near the waterfall to bring peace to the region. The rocks here are marked with natural indentations that locals believe are scars from that epic battle. During the monsoon, the water thunders down into a deep gorge with a deafening roar, creating a mist that blankets the entire area. In the drier months, the river recedes, revealing a moon-like landscape of carved potholes and smooth river stones. The site is vast and open, offering a sense of freedom as you explore the different tiers of the rock plateau. It is a place of both natural beauty and deep-rooted mythology, making it a must-visit for those interested in local legends. The surrounding greenery is sparse on the plateau but dense in the gorge below, creating a stark, beautiful contrast.
