Devkunda Waterfall
The name Devakunda literally translates to 'the bathing spot of gods'. This placid waterfall is a true marvel of nature. With crystal clear water that flows down from the hills and falls from a height of 51 ft., this waterfall is majestic in itself. Adding to its beauty is a lucid pond at the bottom that receives its water from Devkunda Waterfall. With lush greenery and a lively atmosphere, this is a true treat for your eyes.
Chahala
Chahala is a famous wildlife sighting spot in Simlipal National Park. If you are lucky, you might find a Bengal tiger lurking in the area. This place is also frequented by elephants, deers and peacocks along with many other animals.
Barehipani Waterfalls
Cascading from a height of approximately 500 metres, the Barehipani Waterfall in Simlipal National Park is the second-highest waterfall in India. Originating from the Budhabalanga River, this waterfall splits into two tiers as it reaches the bottom. It is an awesome spectacle to witness and is, therefore, a favourite picnic spot among visitors as well.
