Weinia Falls on the river Kynshi and quite near to the Thum falls is another scenic cascade. It is quite deep and water vapor rising up from the bottom of the falls, in sunlight, form the colors of the rainbow. Both the sides of the falls are surrounded with rocks of different shapes, sizes and colors. Massive step-like structures formed by natural agencies are also seen on one side of the falls.
Weinia Falls is very beautiful place in the inner Meghalaya Forest. After a bit of walk you may be able to see the mighty fall from a platform made for this. The valley carved out from the fall is very deep and you need to be cautious while navigating the rocks. Access road is very bad and you won't get any amenities there hence be prepared to bring all your food and water supply with you. It's worth going because of the wilderness and peace.
