About Birthi Waterfall
Birthi waterfall is the biggest waterfall in Uttarakhand and Asia’s third-highest waterfall. Situated in Pithoragarh district 40-45 mins drive from Munsyari. It is a great place to be as it offers a majestic view of this 140-metre-high waterfall. The best time to visit this waterfall would be monsoon, however, as compared to other seasons, you will have to keep a safe distance from the waterfall as the water flow is at its peak.
Water sprinkling can be observed on the road which is a 10-minute walk from the waterfall, so getting near to the waterfall would be as risky as a high-tide ocean. The waterfall has been now recognised as a famous tourist spot by the government which has resulted in the development of a new viewpoint.
The viewpoint will offer a great view of the waterfall and will have some food eateries available soon. As of now, there is only one small dhaba which an old lady runs serving Maggi and tea.
Entry Fee– 20 rupees per person
Spending half an hour at this beautiful waterfall will help you refresh for the upcoming adventurous ride to Munsyari. However, there are few stay options in Birthi (if planning to stay).
