Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a high, narrow waterfall dropping about 107 metres down a sheer quartzite cliff into a forested gorge. The site is reached via a forest trail and viewpoint that requires a moderate trek through the Satpura forest. The surroundings are dense forest and rocky terrain within the Pachmarhi Biosphere Reserve. There is no direct bathing area at the base; viewing is from designated viewpoints. The flow is seasonal and most impressive during monsoon and post-monsoon months.
