Dhabaleswar Falls
Right in Sorada, Ganjam district, Dhabaleswar Falls is a forest waterfall fed by seasonal streams — no long drive needed, which makes squeezing it into a half-day plan straightforward. The cascade view and cool spray zone are the main draws, and a short trek through natural vegetation gets you there nicely. Shade and parking are on hand for when you want to rest after the walk. A small entry fee applies — see the fast facts for the current rate. July through December is when the falls run well.
