Langshiang Falls

Langshiang Falls, Waterfall in West Khasi Hills district, India.

Langshiang Falls is a waterfall in the West Khasi Hills district of northeastern India, plunging down steep rock faces into the Kynshi River below. It is considered one of the tallest waterfalls in India, set within a narrow gorge framed by high stone cliffs.

The area around the falls has long been part of the Khasi Hills, inhabited and used by Khasi communities for generations. West Khasi Hills district was officially created in 1976, giving this part of Meghalaya its own administrative identity.

The falls are also called kshaid Ur-Nar in the local Khasi language, and the pool upstream of the main drop is named Wei Spi. Near Wei Spi stand two smaller falls, kshaid Chong and Wei Spi falls, which share the pool's name. The Kynshi River above the falls splits to form what the sources describe as Asia's second-largest river island before rejoining near Langchong.

The falls can be approached from two starting points: Sangriang village leads you to the water after a walk of around 30 minutes, while Mawpon village offers a more distant view from above. The path from Sangriang brings you closer to the base, so choose based on how far you want to walk and what you want to see.

Wei Spi is a pool on the Kynshi River upstream of the falls, not at the base of the drop: the river passes through a valley, forms the pool ringed by giant cliffs, then diverts into the deep gorge that creates Langshiang Falls. Near Wei Spi stand two smaller falls, Kshaid Chong and Wei Spi Falls.
