The view of the Canyons will strongly remind you of the Scottish Highlands at their best. Also referred to as the “Sit Valley” by the locals... the Laitlum Canyons are an hour’s drive away from Shillong right there on the Mizoram highway. Laitlum Canyons literally translates to “end of hills” and it does justice to its name. The tourist flow to this spectacular place is relatively less and though this means inconvenience... there are no restrooms or proper eateries nearby, the beauty of the place has managed to remain unspoilt.
On most days you will find apple cheeked kids running around selling hard boiled eggs while their mothers trail them with kettles of steaming hot black tea. If you wish for any more refreshments, arrange those yourself and bring a packed picnic basket.
