    You could start early at Dawki, walk across the 1932 bridge, then head straight to Cherrapunji. The drive to the Living Root Bridges takes about an hour, and the walk from the bridge to Mawlynnong is another 30 40 minutes. This way you get the river history and the iconic root bridge experience before visiting the village. If you prefer a base close to the root bridges, Polo Orchid Resort is convenient.
