Historical Facts

Rahala Falls is an incredibly magnificent cascade located conveniently on the incredibly famous scenic route leading directly toward majestic Rohtang Pass from Manali. Fed purely by melting high-altitude Himalayan glaciers, the freezing water forcefully crashes down ancient jagged rocks, dramatically creating a constantly misty, highly refreshing atmosphere. Thickly surrounded entirely by incredibly dense, beautiful groves of tall silver birch and majestic deodar trees, the perfectly serene spot brilliantly offers a cool, naturally comfortable respite for traveling road-trippers and eager nature lovers. It amazingly provides a highly spectacular, completely unobstructed viewpoint carefully looking across the incredibly deep surrounding mountain valleys. Eager photographers passionately adore capturing the perfectly glistening icy waters spectacularly contrasting fiercely against the intensely dark, highly rugged mountain terrain. Visiting Rahala Falls uniquely allows travelers to beautifully experience the intensely raw, highly powerful, and deeply untouched majestic beauty of the spectacular upper Himalayan environment perfectly.
