An
all-season
hill resort, Pachmarhi nestles in Satpura ranges with its enchanting
forest glades, giggling ravines and fascinating wildlife. It has its
archaelogical assets too. There are rock paintings, said to be dating
back to thousands of years, in the caves of Mahadeo hills.
Pachmarhi was discovered in 1857 by a Bengali lancer. The British
developed it as a hillresort. A church built by them is a colourful
legacy. The location has been named Priyadarshini Point. Handi Khoh is
an attractive ravine area. Apsara Vihar is a popular bathing pool. A
trek over Rajat Pratap is an adventure of sorts. Duchess Fall is the
most beautiful waterfall in Pachmarhi. Not far is Saunder's Pool, good
for swimming.
