If you are looking for adventure and your curiousty takes you to unique places. This is it. Opened in 2016. These caves are situated in East Khasi hills. They are the longest cave system (25 km) in sandstone in the world. The cave entrance is about 500-600 m on a track of the road, which will be on your right,if you take the right road from mawsynram road junction and travel 2.5 km.
Tips: please carry water and torch(preferably head torch) along.
Wear comfortable clothing and shoes with lot of grip as u would have to crawl, sit and walk through narrow passages and would find lot of mud in there.
People who are too fat should avoid going in.
Average physical fitness is required.
Entry fee: Rs 20
Guide fee: nominal Rs 200, but award him handsomely, you would love his skills.
Guide is mandatory as it is a complex cave system.

It will be foolish to rate the caves anything less than the full five stars. The thing I like is they have not modernised the area with concrete too close to the structure.

That being said, they should be doing more to increase the safety of the area. It takes about 500 meters of hike reach the cave entrance, and it is a slippery trail. They should not be allowing access as easy it is now.

The board is very easily missed and we went around for nearly 30 minutes on our motor bikes before we figured it out.

You can only get it about 1 km into the cave but would need a guide. It is recommended not to venture very far inside by yourself. The cave is narrow and is networked so you may get lost.

Too much tough trekking, if you re not fit enough don't come, heaven for plant lovers . If you want to go to cave carry a torch and have to carry water and hard shoes.

A little tough trek...nearly 1km trek..to the point.
As no tourist or less visit...this place become unknown or un attractive.

We are the only one ..when we visited ..no other tourist has seen. Benefit of this is...peaceful trek..only nature.
Cave is small ..unable to go under it and along with a waterfall is there.

It is a bit of a trek down to the caves, if you lead a sedentary life you will pant your way there.

We hired guides for our caving experience, which is a must. Come with torches and some protection for your knees and hands. Wear sturdy shoes. And carry water if you plan to go in deep.

Our guides were extremely fun and encouraging. Russell, his nephew John and Banhjob (pretty sure I'm misspelling his name). With their help we managed to go on at least 4.5km. I suggest you start early in the day. We reached at around 11 and wrapped up by 4 PM.

This is my first time caving and I absolutely loved the experience. Our jackets came off 2 km in. The exercise gets one all hot and sweaty. You have to crawl your way through at times, that's when gloves and knee pads would have come handy. We had a few scratches and severely muddy clothes by the time we were done. We had water and a bar of chocolate to keep us going. We didn't make it to the waterfall(?)/beach. That's about 19 km into the cave. But the overall experience was a thrilling rush.

I am overweight and lead an inactive lifestyle. But I managed pretty well thanks to encouraging friends and the guides. Except the bits where we saw a baby bat and a large spider. Yeeks!

Krem Puri is in Laitsohum village, Khasi Hills District. If you want to visit Krem Puri you'll have to take a Balat- Laitsohum road, it's through this road that you'll get to visit Krem Puri.
