Pandavkada Falls

Pandavkada Falls is a waterfall in Kharghar that drops approximately 107 meters (350 feet) down rocky surfaces in a forested area near Navi Mumbai. The water splits into multiple streams flowing through the landscape and forms natural pools at lower elevations.

According to Hindu traditions, the Pandavas bathed beneath the falls during their forest exile, which led to the waterfall's name. This connection to ancient mythology has shaped how people have visited and understood the site through centuries.

The waterfall features a large tunnel system connected to local legends about the Pandavas, making it significant in regional folklore. Visitors can explore these passages and understand how the site remains embedded in community traditions.

You can reach the waterfall by taking local buses to the Kharghar area, where the entrance is straightforward to locate. During monsoon season from June to September the terrain becomes slippery and wet, so sturdy footwear is recommended for safety.
