Maneri Dam, Gravity dam in Uttarkashi district, India.

The Maneri Dam spans 127 meters across the Bhagirathi River, rising 39 meters high with four tainter gates controlling water discharge.

Construction of the Maneri Dam marked the first phase of the Maneri Bhali Hydroelectric Project, reaching completion in 1984 after planning began in the 1960s.

The dam forms part of Uttarakhand's infrastructure development, supplying electricity to neighboring communities through the Tiloth Power Plant.

Located 8.5 kilometers east of Uttarkashi, visitors can reach the dam via regular bus services from Dehradun, which connect through a 145-kilometer route.

The dam diverts water through an 8.6-kilometer tunnel to power three Francis turbines, each generating 30 megawatts at the Tiloth Power Station.
