About Tura

Tura is the principal town of the Garo Hills in western Meghalaya, wrapped in green ridges and cool mornings. Travelers use it for Nokrek National Park and biosphere trails, Pelga Falls on the Ganol River, and the short climb to Tura Peak. Garo culture, local markets, and a calmer pace set it apart from the Khasi and Jaintia circuits. Roads connect Tura with Guwahati and Shillong via longer hill drives. Come for forest walks, waterfalls, and West Garo Hills landscapes.
