Structured 5 Days Mawthadraishan Peak Trek | Epic
Overview
The West Khasi Hills do not often give a summit that frames the entire geography of northeast India from a single standing position. Mawthadraishan does. The peak sits at approximately 1,900 metres in the Eastern West Khasi Hills and on a clear morning the view runs without obstruction in every direction – the Himalayas to the north, the Garo Hills to the west, the Khasi plateau to the east and Bangladesh to the south. There is no other point in Meghalaya from which those four landmarks sit within the same unobstructed frame. The mawthadraishan peak trek is the approach to that position.
Bon handles the vehicle from Guwahati Airport or Railway Station with Shillong as Night 1 and two nights at a village homestay near the Mawthadraishan base for Nights 2 and 3. Day 3 is the full summit day with the Mawphanlur hilltop ponds extension available for groups with the legs for a 7 to 8 hour circuit. Day 4 returns to Shillong with Umiam Lake on the highway before the final night. Daily breakfast on CP basis throughout. Guide charges at the Nongshillong trailhead are paid locally on Day 3.

Best Time to Visit
Meghalaya stays cool year-round. Shillong enjoys pleasant weather (15°C–25°C), while Cherrapunji and Mawsynram receive heavy monsoons (June–September), creating dramatic waterfalls. Winters (October–February) are crisp and dry (4°C–16°C), perfect for exploring living root bridges, crystal-clear Dawki river, and limestone caves. October to April is the best time for sightseeing, trekking, and clear valley views.
