Great pleasure, especially for children. Auto rickshaws are not allowed to the top, but you can hire the other types of vehicles that can easily climb top to the hill. Actually, they charge rupees sixty per person, and the authorities collect rupees five per person. The authorities provide Rope Way Service, which charges are rupees seventy per person.
One of the must see places in western odisha. It is the longest dam in india. You can it's wonderful view from either Gandhi minar or Nehru minar. I would suggest you go for Gandhi minar from which you can easily go to the dyke for the scenic side view. For beautiful pictures either go there early morning or evening before sunset.
Views from here is just awesome. Better than Gandhi Minar. Visit during evening, 1 hour before sunset for best views.
Good place to see the view of whole hirakud dam and top view is awesome best time to visit is morning u can see the sunrise.
