Meghalaya: Wachiwari Fish Sanctuary Visit with Transfers

Explore the community-protected Wachiwari Fish Sanctuary on the Simsang River through a guided nature and conservation experience in the Garo Hills.

Wachiwari is a community-managed fish sanctuary associated with Rombagre village. Meghalaya Tourism identifies it as a tranquil sanctuary along the Simsang River where visitors can observe the rare Chocolate Mahseer and appreciate the surrounding natural landscape.

The sanctuary was established through community conservation efforts to protect indigenous fish populations. Earlier conservation documentation records the development of a viewpoint and tree-house at the site, while the protected river pool and surrounding riparian area are managed by the local community.

The experience combines a private transfer, guided sanctuary visit, riverside nature observation, fish-conservation interpretation and landscape photography. Guests can observe fish from designated viewing areas while following local sanctuary rules.

Meeting Instructions:

Guests should report 30 minutes before the scheduled activity at the designated meeting point.
