During monsoon season, the waterfall spans nearly 300 meters in width, making it the widest waterfall in India. The falls cascade down from a height of 30 meters, creating a mesmerizing curtain of water that produces a thunderous roar audible from kilometers away. The surrounding area is rich in biodiversity, with dense forests home to various wildlife species. The best time to visit is during the monsoon and post-monsoon months when the water flow is at its peak.
