Pachmarhi Views
Bee Fall or Jamuna
Prapat:


The height of the fall is around 150 feet,
which is situated only 3 Km from the town, this waterfall drops
into a stream and this stream is the very source of Panchmari
’s drinking water. Just above the fall there is a bathing pool,
which is very popular and there after starts a 400 mts pathway
down to the fall.
Apsara Vihar:


The pool is formed by a waterfall which
falls from a height of nearly 30ft. This is an ideal place for
family picnic, as this pool is shallow and the whole family can
enjoy the waters. A person can reach under the fall after
swimming the short distance of the pool. The local guides says
that during the British rule, the British ladies used to come
to this place for a bath and the ‘Adivasis’ (Local People, who
lived in jungle) used to peep them from nearby bushes and
trees, as these ladies skin where white, they considered them
to by an ‘Apsara’ (Fairy), that’s who this place came to be
known as ‘Apsara Vihar’ or ‘Fairy’s Pool’.
Rajat Prapat (Silver
Fall):

It is situated nearly half a k.m from Apsara
Vihar, the water stream of Apsara Vihar makes a big waterfall
of about 350 ft. and when sunlight falls on it, it shines as
silver ( Rajat ), that’s why it is known as Rajat Prapat or
Silver Fall. For trackers and adventure lovers there is a route
for going down to the base of the fall, but it is quite
difficult to reach, as it is nearly 3kms and is very
tiring.
