Geography & terrain

Pali Waterfall lies in the Korba district of Chhattisgarh, 65 km from Korba and 200 km from Raipur — the hidden falls of the region, its tiered drop, the pools and the hills set on the Maikal range's green.

History & culture

The falls' story runs with the region's forest life — the waterfall of the Pali village's stream and the natural pools of the Maikal forest, with the falls' modern role as the offbeat stop of the Korba circuit and the home of the seasonal cascades and the hill walks; the falls' history of the tribal villages' life and the monsoon's green, gives Pali its hidden-falls character.
