Saintala Cascade
Right in Saintala, Balangir district, this monsoon-fed cascade is at its liveliest between July and December when the local forest drainage systems are running strong.

Shade and parking are on hand, and the round trip can be done comfortably in about four hours. A small entry fee applies — the fast facts carry the current rate.
