Mawsynram in April
Meghalaya, India
April rains intensify here, turning trails muddy and views hazy
Peak crowds
April is one of Mawsynram's busiest months. The score rates conditions — weather, access, value — not how many people you'll share them with. So few visitors that crowding is never an issue. Monsoon is extreme — 10m+ annual rainfall.
April sees rain increase as monsoon approaches. The landscape gets greener.
