Overview

The spectacular Jingkieng Nongriat Double Decker Living Root Bridge, also known as the Umshiang Double Decker Living Root Bridge or simply the Double Decker Root Bridge, is hidden deep in the lush, green woods of India's wettest place: Cherrapunjee, Meghalaya. This area is known for its Indian Rubber Tree root bridges, but the Double Decker Bridge is the most well-known owing to its enormity. It stretches over 3 kilometres and rises to a height of 2400 feet! A one-of-a-kind attraction that combines nature and engineering in a novel way. Underneath the bridge, the Umshiang River runs.

Itinerary

By early afternoon, it is the finest spot for the Living Root Bridge journey to the double-decker bridge. With your team guide, go through the jungle for 3.5 kilometres. On the way, drink some water and sample some lime juice from the area. You may store your luggage in the homestay as soon as you reach the double-decker bridge. Return, marvel at the beautiful water bodies near the double-decker bridge, and feel fantastic while getting a complimentary fish pedicure. In Nongriat village, spend the night in a guesthouse. The guesthouse is poor, with faded walls and creaking mattresses, yet it is the only place to stay for the night in this area. The restrooms are clean, but there is no running water, so you'll have to take your buckets from the next tap.

After breakfast, go on a rainforest hike to the Living Root Bridge. To get to Rainbow Falls, cross a few more live root bridges and a few hanging bridges. It will take you around 2 hours to walk one way. However, seeing the rainbow in the afternoon is preferable since the sunlight triggers the rainbow as the sun progresses westward. Swim among the waterfalls or cool down in the adjacent ponds. Return to the Nongriat Village guesthouse and spend the night there.

Around 10:00 a.m., begin ascending again. The steep ascent to the parking location on the well takes some time. Arrive at the top of the stairwell and exit.
