How To Reach Palkot Waterfall

Lansdowne, Uttarakhand, India
Natural Attraction: Palkot Waterfall is a relatively smaller, seasonal cascade nestled deep within the thick forests outside the main Lansdowne cantonment area. Unlike highly commercialized falls, it retains a rugged, natural, and pristine feel. The journey to the waterfall involves a combination of a drive and a short, refreshing trek through dense greenery, offering an authentic experience of the Garhwal region's natural beauty. It is an ideal spot for nature enthusiasts, trekkers, and those seeking solitude away from the popular spots. The water volume is highest during the Monsoon and post-Monsoon months (July to October), making it a spectacular sight then. During the dry season, it may be reduced to a trickle. The surrounding ecosystem is untouched, with diverse flora and fauna, making it a peaceful sanctuary for wildlife and bird watchers. The area is maintained by the local forest department and village community, emphasizing eco-tourism principles.:

How to Reach

By Air: Nearest is Jolly Grant Airport (DED) near Dehradun (148 KMs). Hire a taxi to Lansdowne, and then arrange local transport to the waterfall's nearest road point. The total journey takes about 4. 5-5. 5 hours.

By Train: Nearest is Kotdwar (KTW) at 40 KMs. Take a cab or shared jeep to Lansdowne. From Lansdowne, hire a local taxi to the starting point of the trek (around 12-15 KMs drive).

By Road: Drive from Delhi to Lansdowne (250-280 KMs). From Lansdowne, take the road towards the direction of Dhaksun or Palkot village. The last section involves a short but necessary trek of about 500 meters to 1 KM from where the vehicle road ends.

By Local Transport: From Lansdowne's main market, hire a local private taxi for a round trip. Shared jeeps going towards the villages might drop you near the point, but a dedicated taxi is more reliable for this secluded spot. :
