Vasudhara Falls

It is also the place where Sage Vedavyasa divided the Vedas into four Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atharva.

The one on whom it falls is considered to be entitled to salvation and because of this, devotees stand under this holy waterfall.

Mahabali Bhima was the most powerful among them, so he picked up a boulder and threw it between the two hills, making an enormous bridge, allowing them to continue towards heaven.

Mana Village and Vasudhara Fall are usually accessible to tourists from the second week of May to October or November when Badrinath temple is open to the general public.

Badrinath is accessible by motor vehicles from Rishikesh, the nearest railway station.

After passing Saraswati Mandir, the trek becomes very steep, allowing views of Vasudhara river valley.

Even on a bright sunny day, the weather is mildly cool and breezy (during June to August).
