    Since you’re already in Guwahati, a quick 50 km drive to Donmotul takes about an hour each way. If you book a private cab from the city, most drivers stick to a fixed rate and keep the route straight along NH 27. For families, the short 10 minute walk from the parking to the waterfall is ideal kids can splash in the shallow stream and spot the small stone cutting rocks that add a bit of adventure. In October the monsoon is usually over, but a light rain jacket is handy just in case. If you’re staying at Cygnett Inn Imperial, ask the front desk for a pick up and a map of the quickest path.
