🏔 Top Things To See & Do
A two-tier torrent dropping through a forested gorge — the tallest and most powerful waterfall in Mizoram.
A purpose-built tower on the opposite hillside gives a clear, unobstructed view of the full drop.
Thick green hills, bamboo groves and birdsong make the approach as memorable as the falls themselves.
Morning light and post-monsoon flow give the best shots; mist often drifts across the gorge at dawn.
Pair the falls with Thenzawl’s handloom cluster, deer park and Tuirihiau Falls for a full day out.
💡 Good To Know
- Flow is strongest during and just after the monsoon — that is when the falls look their best.
- The walk down to the viewpoint involves steps; wear good footwear.
- Steps and railings get slippery in the rain — move carefully.
- Carry drinking water and snacks; facilities near the site are limited.
- Best combined with an overnight stay in Thenzawl.
