About the Event

Devkund Waterfall is a stunning natural attraction nestled in the Raigad District of Maharashtra. Devkund is a single plunge waterfall, where water cascades down into a natural pond, creating a mesmerizing sight. The water is accumulated from streams in Tamhini Ghat and Plus Valley, known for their natural beauty and pristine ponds. The pond at the base of the waterfall offers a thrilling and refreshing experience, perfect for a relaxing dip in its cool waters. The trek to Devkund takes you through dense forests, crossing small streams and scenic landscapes.
