Kapilash Upper Cascade
Right within the Kapilash hill area, the Upper Cascade feeds into the larger waterfall complex below and rewards the short trek with a cool spray zone that feels great on a warm day. It's a manageable four-hour round trip, easy to tag on during a visit to Kapilash. July through December is the window when the cascade is properly active — don't expect much in the dry months. Shade and parking are available; a small entry fee applies, so check the fast facts for the current rate.
