About Laitlum Canyon

Laitlum, meaning 'End of Hills', is one of Meghalaya's most breathtaking geological wonders. Perched atop the East Khasi Hills, the canyon plunges thousands of feet into winding emerald river valleys below. Often wrapped in dramatic swirling mist, Laitlum offers an awe-inspiring 360-degree panorama of rolling meadows and an ancient steep stairway leading down to the hidden village of Rasong.
