About Nongriat Village (Double Decker Bridge)
Nongriat is a remote village nestled in the dense tropical forests of Meghalaya, famous for its spectacular Double Decker Living Root Bridge. Reaching the village requires a challenging trek of over 3,000 steps down into a valley. The trek itself is a beautiful experience, passing through small villages and suspension bridges. The Double Decker bridge is a stunning example of bio-engineering, created by the local Khasi tribes over generations. The village offers a unique opportunity to stay in basic homestays and experience life in harmony with nature, away from the modern world.
