About Aurwatand Waterfall
A monsoon fall on a small stream in the forest south of Naugarh, less known than Rajdari and with almost nothing built around it: a gravel track, a viewpoint on the rock and the drop into a wooded ravine. It only runs properly from mid July into October. Local families come on Sundays; on a weekday you may have it to yourself. The rock at the lip is slick when wet.
What to see and do
- The fall into the wooded ravine
- Forest track from Naugarh
- Empty on weekdays
- Combine with Naugarh fort and Latif Shah dam
