Ukium River Confluence

Ukium River Confluence is a natural attraction at Ukium village in West Khasi Hills, Meghalaya, near the Assam border. It marks the confluence of hill rivers flowing through forested valleys, forming clear turquoise waters with sandy banks and surrounding hills. Noted for its scenic, tranquil landscape, the site is visited for sightseeing, photography and riverside leisure and is often included on routes between Shillong, Nongstoin and Guwahati.

Visitors can expect an open riverside landscape where two rivers meet amid forested hills and wide sandy banks. The water is typically clear with shades of blue-green in drier months. There are no built structures at the confluence itself; the setting is natural and quiet, suitable for viewing the rivers, walking along the banks, photography and picnicking. Access is via a rural road and a short walk to the bank.
