About Chitrakote Falls

Often called the 'Niagara Falls of India,' Chitrakote Falls is a spectacular, horseshoe-shaped waterfall located on the Indravati River. It is the widest waterfall in India, and during the monsoon season, it becomes a powerful and breathtaking spectacle as the muddy, silt-laden water thunders down the cliff. The beauty of the falls changes with the seasons, from a powerful torrent in the monsoon to a gentle series of streams in the winter. Boating at the bottom of the falls offers a magnificent, close-up view of this natural wonder.Explore more destinations in Chhattisgarh.
