Waterfalls in Uttarakhand, are the beautiful places from where you can frame a perfect picture of water descending from a height with the gushing sound of water. And that's not all because the picture can never be complete without the mighty snow-capped peaks of Uttarakhand, painted in the background. Most of these charismatic waterfalls are perfect for a short trek, away from the busy tourist attractions in Uttarakhand, whereas there are few like the Kempty Falls in Mussoorie that remain unbelievably crowded throughout the year. Most of these falls have an average height of 126 m and are situated at an approximate elevation of 1400 m above the sea level. One of the best things about these waterfalls is that they add more charm to the nearby cities and towns like Mussoorie, Haridwar, Pithoragarh, Rishikesh giving visitors another reason to plan a holiday here. There seems nothing so perfect that enjoying a shower under a cascading stream that too right amidst the beauteous nature of Uttarakhand.
Whether you are a solo traveller or on a vacation with friends and family, you can always take a detour and enjoy the natural beauty of these waterfalls. Being set amidst the lush greenery of Uttarakhand, most of these places are perfect for a picnic and photography tour, while others like Sahastradhara Falls hold importance for being perfect for medicinal purposes. There are a number of unexplored and lesser known or for that matter unnamed waterfalls that are nothing short of a dream. Situated amidst the surreal destinations that Uttarakhand is home to, they are indeed those surprises that make a travel venture in the state even more unforgettable. One can spend half day's time and revel in fishing, bathing under the glimmering falls, boating, swimming, or just enjoying a good meal around nature.
