Chitradhara Waterfall
DirectionBastar has a series of waterfalls, many of them are perennials, while some are deprived of water during the summer, but during the rainy and winter season their beauty is unique. Chitradhara comes in the latter category.
Chitradhara waterfall is an amazing example of Bastar’s beauty. On the way to Chitrakote Falls, a small river flows through the valley of a small hill and it is the beginning of the river bed of the farmers. For this reason, there is water during the rain, but in the summer, its excellence becomes faded.
In the upper part of the spring, devotees made an observation spot to see the charm of a Shiva temple and waterfall. This waterfall falls from a height of 50 feet. The next main waterfall flows down from the left side of the height of 100 feet and flows towards the hills.
It is a best spot for picnic .This waterfall is located in the quiet and remote location of the village of Potanar. Chitradhara, Tamada Ghumar and Mehendri Ghumar make Chitrakote waterfall tour even more attractive and enjoyable.
