    If you’re driving from Shillong to Umiam Lake the most straightforward route is the NH6 corridor; it takes about 45 minutes and passes the historic Shillong Peak viewpoint where you can see the old colonial era watchtower. On the way you might also detour to the Shillong City Museum, which houses artifacts from the Khasi tribes and dates back to the British period. If you need a place to stay in Shillong, Living Roof offers good comfort and easy access to the highway.
