Mahagiri Falls
Set in the forested hills near Mahagiri in Jajpur district, this waterfall is at its best from July through December when the rains keep it full and the cool spray zone is genuinely refreshing. A short trek brings you to the cascade, which makes it a more active outing than a typical picnic stop. Shade and parking are available at the site. Vehicle access is moderate, so check road conditions before heading out; a small entry fee also applies — see the fast facts for the current rate.
