How to Get to Pandav Falls#

Pandav Falls is reached from the hill station of Pachmarhi; it lies a few kilometers from the town center-usually a 10-20 minute drive plus a short walk from the car park to the viewpoint. Road connections are good within the Pachmarhi circuit; taxis and local jeeps run regular short hops to the falls.

Tips for Visiting Pandav Falls#

Visit just after the monsoon when the falls are fullest but before paths become too muddy (September-October).
Use the marked viewpoint rather than scrambling down wet rocks-many of the scenic photos are taken from the upper lookout.
Combine the visit with nearby waterfalls and Pachmarhi circuits if time allows-local guides can put together half-day trips.
