Nakti Dharsa Waterfall
Nakti Dharsa Waterfall is a spectacular natural site located near the village of Mudhipar in the Rewadih area. This waterfall is characterized by its wide ledge from which water drops into a wide, shallow pool. The name "Nakti" is a local term, and the falls are part of the complex hydrological sys tem of the Barnawapara wildlife region. The forest surrounding the waterfall is dense and serves as a home to many species of deer and wild boar. Historically, the area was used by tribal hunters, but today it is a protected zone for eco-tourism. The waterfall provides a serene backdrop for those looking to escape the hustle of city life. The trek to the falls is slightly more demanding than others in the region, involving some rocky climbs and forest walking. This adds to the sense of adventure for those who visit. The water remains relatively cool even during the warmer months because of the heavy shade provided by the surrounding ancient trees. The site is a favorite for local explorers and those who enjoy "slow travel." The mist from the falls keeps the surrounding rocks covered in vibrant green moss, creating a fairytale-like appearance. It is a perfect example of the "virgin" beauty of Chhattisgarh's forests, where nature is allowed to thrive without much human interference.
