Diengiei Peak is located to the west of the Shillong plateau and is one of the most spectacular view-points of the region. It is just 200 ft lower than the Shillong peak. From the summit of the peak, one can get a breathtaking view of the beautiful green hills and mountains of the East Khasi Hills. One can also see several small villages in the form of tiny dots at a distance.
From the Diengiei Peak, one could also see the Umiam Lake with Shillong at its backdrop. It is absolutely a perfect place for one who wants to forget the world and become one with nature. At the top of the Diengiei, there is a huge cup-shaped hollow which some geologists believe to be the crater from an extinct pre-historic volcano.
To reach Diengiei Peak, one may hire a local taxi from Shillong, that will take you via the Umiam-Union Christian College-Mawmaram motorable road.
