How To Reach Dalima Peak
Tura, Meghalaya, India:
Dalima Peak, also widely known as Tura Peak, stands majestically at an altitude of approximately 872 meters above sea level, making it the highest point in the immediate vicinity of Tura. This iconic natural landmark is the backdrop to the Tura town and is a part of the greater Nokrek National Park buffer zone and the Tura Range. The peak is not just a geographical feature; it is steeped in local folklore, where it is believed to be the sacred abode of the local deity, Durama (or Dura), which is said to be the original name before the British mispronounced it as Tura. The summit offers a breathtaking, 360-degree panoramic view of the rolling Garo Hills, the sprawling town of Tura below, and on a clear day, the vast plains of the Brahmaputra Valley in Assam and even the golden plains of Bangladesh in the distance. The entire area is a reserved forest, rich in biodiversity, dense with sub-tropical evergreen and semi-evergreen forests, hosting unique flora and fauna. There is an old observatory post and a tourist bungalow at the top, remnants of the British colonial era, which initially developed the trek path. The air here is crisp, cool, and offers a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle, providing immense tranquility and a profound connection with nature.
