Travel Tips Of Handawada Waterfall
Kirandul, Chhattisgarh, India
Sub Place Details: Handawada Waterfall, also known as Goyedhar Ghumar, is arguably the most spectacular and remote waterfall in the entire Bastar region. Located on the fringes of the mysterious Abujhmarh forest—a territory known for its deep isolation and untouched tribal culture—this waterfall is a true frontier for travelers. The water originates from the Goyedhar runnel and plunges from a staggering height, making it one of the highest in Chhattisgarh. Reaching Handawada is an adventure in itself, often requiring a crossing of the Indravati River by boat followed by a trek through dense meadows and forests. The area is only accessible during the dry months from January to May, as the monsoon rains make the river crossing and forest tracks impassable. The sight of the waterfall is overwhelming; a massive column of white water crashing against dark rocks, surrounded by a prehistoric-looking landscape of giant ferns and towering trees. The "Hill Top Rest Point" near the falls offers a panoramic view of the cascading water and the endless green canopy of the Abujhmarh hills. Due to its extreme remoteness, the site sees very few visitors, ensuring a sense of discovery and awe. The local tribes live in harmony with this giant, and visiting Handawada is as much about cultural immersion as it is about natural beauty. It represents the "wild heart" of Chhattisgarh, where the modern world feels like a distant memory and nature reigns supreme.
