Bheel Beri Waterfall – Where the Wild Meets the Water
If you ever find yourself driving down from Kamli Ghat towards Jodhpur, keep an eye out for a small detour that leads to one of Rajasthan’s most exclusive hidden gems — the Bheel Beri Waterfall. This isn’t your usual tourist stop. This is where the Aravalli Hills’ rugged wilderness hides a 180-foot cascade, reachable only through a true off-road adventure. For discerning travelers from Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Gujarat, the UK, Germany, Italy, France, Switzerland, Australia, and America, this is an experience that goes beyond sightseeing — it is Rajasthan at its most authentic.
The Journey Begins
After a short descent from Kamli Ghat, the smooth tar road gives way to dust, stones, and forest tracks. Here, you leave your regular car behind. Adventurers can either take their own 4x4 or hire a sturdy Gypsy from the forest department — both promising a thrilling ride through the untamed Aravallis.
The trail cuts through thick forests, with the ancient hills forming a protective wall around you. The air is cooler, scented with wild shrubs, and your ears may catch the sudden call of a jungle fowl or the distant bark of a sambhar deer. This is leopard country, and while sightings are rare, the very possibility adds a quiet thrill to every turn.
Wild Encounters
The Bhil Beri forest is alive with wildlife. Sloth bears shuffle through the undergrowth in search of berries and termites. Sambhar deer graze quietly in sunlit clearings. Jungle fowl dart across the track, their plumage flashing gold and crimson in the dappled light. And sometimes, if fortune smiles, you may glimpse the spotted shadow of a leopard — the elusive master of these hills.
The best times for wildlife sightings are early morning and late evening, when the forest awakens and every rustle carries a sense of suspense.
The Nine-Coloured Jewel – Indian Pitta
Just after a shower, when the forest floor is damp and alive, a small plump bird hops into view—the Indian Pitta, or Navrang. True to its name, it carries the brilliance of nine colours: emerald, turquoise, coral, black, and white, all shimmering in one compact body.
It's clear, whistling “wheet-tew” call bounces between the trees. It forages for earthworms and insects with an almost theatrical hop, disappearing as suddenly as it appeared—leaving you wondering if it was real, or a fleeting monsoon dream.
The Final Reward
After a few kilometers of bouncing over rocky trails and winding through shaded glades, you hear it — the steady roar of falling water. Then, like a secret revealed, the Bhil Beri Waterfall appears: a curtain of silver plunging 180 feet into a rocky basin below.
In the monsoon months, it is at its most spectacular, fed by swelling streams and framed by the lush green Aravallis. The sight is raw, untamed, and breathtakingly real. With so few visitors, you can often enjoy the magic of this place in peaceful solitude — an almost private experience in the heart of Rajasthan.
Why It’s Special
Bheel Beri isn’t just about the waterfall; it’s about the journey itself — the thrill of the off-road track, the coolness of the forest air, the chance of meeting wild creatures, and the unforgettable joy of discovering a place that feels untouched.
For travelers who value exclusive experiences and seek to go beyond the ordinary, this hidden waterfall offers a rare glimpse into the wild soul of Rajasthan.
So next time you’re passing Kamli Ghat, take that detour. Trade your smooth highway for a rugged forest track, and let the wild Aravallis guide you to a memory that will stay long after the dust settles.
For Luxury Travelers: Combine your visit to Bheel Beri with a stay at Devshree, Deogarh — a heritage luxury resort near Udaipur. Whether you are visiting from India’s metros (Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Gujarat) or flying in from Europe, Australia, or America, Devshree offers an elegant retreat where culture, nature, and royal hospitality come together.
