Daringbadi Waterfall
Right within the Daringbadi hill station landscape in Kandhamal, this well-known waterfall is easy to reach and makes a satisfying half-day outing. The cool spray zone near the cascade is a welcome relief, and a short trek gets you close to the falls. It runs well from July through December, so plan visits during or just after the monsoon for the best flow. Shade and parking are available on site, and a small entry fee applies — see the fast facts for the current rate.
