Amazing place... Lovely waterfall...we have to take a kid from Dhodhani village to show us a way to waterfall as we cannot find it on our own..( He/she will charge 200). Best place to visit after monsoon as river crossing won't be easy. There's a small shop nearby waterfall where we can get snacks and tea. Weekdays are not much crowded very less people visit this place during week days..Sunday's are crowded according to locals.

Love this place it may underrated but wanna to be rated like some people said the panvel was khandar but yarr look this place you fallen in love with it and you also have a chance to swim with fishes and they all are freindly you must visit it

Beautiful n peaceful.... But trekking is compulsory

We went to Maldunge near by Dodhani. The atmosphere was pleasant. Specially in rainy season.

Lovey waterfall. You have to take a kid from the dodhani village who will guide you (Rs200) till the waterfall. Its not possible to find it on our own. We also bought some fresh vegetables on our way of trek. There's a small shop just at the waterfall for tea and snacks and they're very sweet. The kid /our guide was also very sweet and helpful. There was a monkey too who took away our food box. But we enjoyed a lot. There were no other people as it was a friday. Sundays are crowded as per the villagers. The place is superb. You cant be this close to nature elsewhere. It gives you a feeling of Himachal/Kashmir.
