Chitradhara Waterfall

Bastar has an array of waterfalls, many of them are perennial, while some are deprived of water during summers; but their beauty during rains and winters is nonpareil. Chitradhara falls under the latter category.
‘Chitradhara waterfall’ is a marvellous specimen of the beauty of Bastar. 12 kms from Jagdalpur upto Karanji, advancing in Lohandiguda Chitrakoot road, a road is diverted leftwards to Tokapal. Getting ahead on this way, near to Kurenga village, a runnel flows through the canyon of a small hill and it is an onset of agriculturist cascade 1km away. For this reason it has water during rains but in summers, its exquisiteness fades.
On the upper part of the waterfall, devotees have constructed a Shiva temple and a viewpoint to glance at the winsomeness of the waterfall. Nearby on both sides, trails run down to the submontane region of the waterfall. It falls from a height of 50feet in the form of a waterfall. The next main waterfall cascades down from a height of 100 feet leftwards and extends towards hills.
The excursion to Chitradhara is best midst the rainy season and winter season, that is from December-January. After that, during February-May, the water level decreases and the view is not alluring. This site is accessible at any time by any means.
