Introduction
Meghalaya, the Abode of Clouds, is a verdant paradise of living root bridges, mystical sacred groves, and crystalline rivers. Riding through this lush wonderland requires sharp wet-weather riding skills and sincere respect for indigenous Khasi and Garo traditions.
À faire lors d’un voyage à Meghalaya

Ride cautiously on mist-shrouded roads around Cherrapunji and Mawsynram with reduced speeds and low-beam headlights.
