3. Jatashankar Caves

A natural cave temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, featuring stalagmites revered as lingams.  The cave's structure resembles the hundred-headed Shesha.  

4. Bee Falls

A popular waterfall that provides drinking water to the town.  The trek to the falls is invigorating, and the view is rewarding.  

5. Mahadeo Hill

Home to an ancient shrine of Lord Shiva and the Mahadeo Cave.  The hill offers picturesque trekking routes.

🗓️ Best Time to Visit

While Pachmarhi is pleasant year-round, the best time to visit is from October to March.  The monsoon season (June to September) brings lush greenery but may restrict outdoor activities due to heavy rains.
