Geography & terrain

Tirathgarh Falls lies in the Bastar district of Chhattisgarh at about 500 m, 40 km from Jagdalpur and 20 km from Kanger valley — the falls of the region, its 300-m steps, the pools and the forest set on the Kanger river.

History & culture

The falls' story runs with the 1980s tourism era — the falls of the 300-m steps and the 1980s-era tourism of the Bastar life, with the falls' modern role as the nature stop of the Jagdalpur circuit and the home of the 300-m steps and the natural pools and the 2000s-era walks; the falls' history of the 2010s-era steps and the monsoon life, gives Tirathgarh its falls character.
