Chitrakote Waterfalls
Often called the Niagara of India, the Chitrakote Waterfalls is India’s widest waterfall, cascading 95 feet over the Indravati River. Located amidst dense forest in Bastar district, it offers a spectacular view, especially during monsoons when the falls are in full glory. The surrounding tribal culture and natural beauty make it an offbeat yet rewarding experience.
• Tips:
- Best visited during monsoon (July–October) for full water flow.
- Carry rain protection and waterproof footwear.
- Stay in nearby eco-resorts or government lodges.
- Avoid getting too close to the water edge—slippery rocks.
• Location: Bastar district, Chhattisgarh.
• Nearest Metro/Access: Nearest airport: Jagdalpur (or Raipur with onward road journey).
