Patna Waterfall

← Rishikesh

One of the most popular waterfalls near Rishikesh, hidden in green hills near Tapovan. A short but scenic trek leads here, about 1.5 km uphill on a rocky path. The waterfall is especially beautiful in the rainy season, when thin streams of water flow down the rock, creating a cool shower in the open air.

In the rocks nearby there's also a small cave where yogis used to practice.
