Khandadhar Lower Cascade
Downstream from the main falls near Bonai in Sundargarh district, the Khandadhar Lower Cascade is a series of smaller drops that are often quieter and more accessible than the main viewpoint. July through December is the best window when water levels keep the cascades lively, and a short trek gets you into a nice cool spray zone. Shade and parking are available on-site. A small entry fee applies — see the fast facts for the current rate.
