The Double Decker Living Root Bridge in Nongriat, Meghalaya, is one of nature’s most remarkable creations. These bridges are made from the aerial roots of rubber trees, guided and woven by the Khasi tribe over decades to form sturdy natural pathways. The Double Decker bridge consists of two layers of root bridges stacked on top of each other, providing an awe-inspiring experience.
To reach the bridge, you’ll need to trek over 3,000 steps downhill through lush forests, which offers a challenging yet rewarding adventure. The journey offers breathtaking views and peaceful surroundings, and once you arrive, you can dip your feet into the cool streams beneath the bridge for a relaxing natural pedicure.
Tip: For a fuller experience, consider staying overnight in the nearby village and extending your trek to the beautiful Rainbow Falls, a 45-minute hike from Nongriat.
