What to do and see in Uttarakhand, India: The Best Waterfalls
Uttarakhand (English: /ˌʊtəˈrɑːkʌnd/), officially the State of Uttarakhand (Uttarākhaṇḍ Rājya), formerly known as Uttaranchal, is a state in the northern part of India. It is often referred to as the Devbhumi (literally "Land of the Gods") due to many Hindu temples and pilgrimage centres found throughout the state. Uttarakhand is known for the natural environment of the Himalayas, the Bhabhar and the Terai. On 9 November 2000, Uttarakhand became the 27th state of the Republic of India, being created from the Himalayan and adjoining northwestern districts of Uttar Pradesh. It borders Tibet to the north; the Province No. 7 of Nepal to the east; and the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh to the south and Himachal Pradesh to the west and north-west as well as Haryana on its south-western corner. The state is divided into two divisions, Garhwal and Kumaon, with a total of 13 districts. The interim capital of Uttarakhand is Dehradun, the largest city of the state, which is a railhead. The High Court of the state is located in Nainital.

It's an amazing waterfall which can bring all your senses alive. Whether it's the roaring sound of water falling from the height or the mist surrounding the atmosphere or the icy cold water, you can rest assured to be rejuvenated by this place. But do not venture deep into the water without a guide or life jacket as messing with the natural forces here can be quite risky.

A 2 kms Trek to the waterfall if you start from Jharipani castle. Otherwise take your car down to 1 km and then start your Trek down. Peaceful and soothing atmosphere with rare birds around.
