Rimbi Waterfall

Rimbi Waterfall is a small cascade waterfall located in Rimbi village in Gyalshing District of West Sikkim, about 12 km from Pelling on the Pelling-Khecheopalri road. Fed by Rimbi River, it flows throughout the year and is situated beside the main road, making it easily accessible. Known for its scenic setting amid forested hills and its proximity to the historic Rimbi hydroelectric project, it is a common stop for tourists traveling between Pelling and Yuksom.

Visitors can expect a roadside cascade waterfall flowing over rocks into a small pool, surrounded by forested hills. The falls are viewed from the roadside and a small viewing area with steps leading closer to the base. The setting is natural and compact, suitable for short stops for sightseeing and photography while traveling between Pelling, Darap and Khecheopalri Lake. Small shops and food stalls are available nearby.

Rimbi area is noted for the Rimbi Hydel Power Station, one of the earliest hydroelectric projects in Sikkim, located close to the waterfall site on the Rimbi River.
