Most of the caves are located in the East Khasi Hills, South Garo Hills, and Jaintia Hills. Caving can be an activity involving 5-10 days of exploring the wonders of the nature. You will need a proper gear and professionals to guide you through these dense caves and show you the right path. Proper gear includes gumboots, body suits, helmets, LED headlamps, a bottle of water, first-aid kit and a nutrient bar as the entire activity can be really tiring.

Encounter the uneven terrains as you get closer to the core, traverse your trails carefully in narrow passages as you might get hurt.
