Hello everyone , we went to Elephant Waterfall and Dympep Valley on the first day in Shillong. And I found every single review here beautiful. I am telling you about the Elephant Waterfall in full detail, where is it, how is it and how did it get the name Elephant Waterfall?
ELEPHANT WATERFALL DETAILS
The Elephant Falls are a two-tier waterfall in Shillong, Meghalaya, India. The mountain stream descends through two successive falls set in dells of fern-covered rocks
The original Khasi name for the falls is Ka Kshaid Lai Pateng Khohsiew, which translates to "the three-step waterfall". This name is still used locally. However, the modern name is explained by a signboard near the waterfall. The name originated in the British era when the Englishmen spotted a giant rock that looked like an elephant near the fall. This rock was destroyed in the 1897 due to an earthquake
The first fall of Elephant Falls is an example of a horsetail-punchbowl waterfall. The first fall is very broad and is hidden among trees. The second fall however, is quite domesticated and in the winters (and drier months) looks inconsequential. The third fall is the tallest and comes into view suddenly and looks most spectacular with crystal clear water falling over sharp rocks of myriad shapes.
The sides of the waterfall are flanked by lush greenery and are rich in ferns
Elephant Falls is situated at the outskirts of the main city of Shillong in the East Khasi Hills District, Upper Shillong. It is almost 12 km away from the Shillong city center. A small signboard quite close to the Shillong Peak marks a small road that turns off to the edge of the mountain. This road leads to the falls.
From the gate, there is a steep, slippery flight of stairs to navigate each level of the fall with the first and second level facilitated with benches to rest and relax.

And Here 👇🏻 the Dympep Valley Full Details
On the way to Cherrapunjee and about six-minutes away from the caves lies the Mawkdok-Dympep Valley View Point. Sloping hills carpeted in green from either side joining in an almost ‘v’ shape make for spectacular sightings and photographs.
Half an hour is good here, even more, if you want to try out the ziplining
