Kailash Waterfall
Right in Buguda in Ganjam district, this is one of the better-known waterfalls in the area, set within forested hill terrain that keeps things cool even on warmer days. The waterfall is at its fullest from July through to December, so the monsoon and early winter months are the best time to catch it in good flow. A short trek brings you close enough for a proper cool spray, and shade and parking are available on-site. A small entry fee applies — check the fast facts for the current rate.
