When we hear about Dima Hasao, the first thing that comes to the mind is Haflong. It is the only hill station in Assam which is a popular hotspot with the tourists. However, besides Haflong there are also several lesser explored destinations in Dima Hasao that call for our attention. Bendao Baglai Waterfalls is one of them. Bendao is known for its pristine beauty and crystal clear water. Its terrain is not for the faint hearted and is a heaven for adventure junkies.
Bendao Baglai Waterfalls is located around 3 kms from this village. This area is home to three magnificent waterfalls nestled amid the lush green forests of Dima Hasao.
In Dimasa language, ‘Bendao’ means two sisters and ‘Baglai’ means to jump. As per popular belief, two sisters took their own lives by jumping from one of these three waterfalls. It is believed that the waterfalls got the name from this incident.
Bendao is like a heaven for adventure lovers and trekking enthusiasts. An intense trekking from Samparidisa village through the dense forests located 3 kms away will lead you to these beautiful waterfalls. It takes around 5 hours to complete the entire trek. Even though the journey might be a little difficult, what waits for you at the end will leave you spellbound.
