Duchess Fall - Pachmarhi's refreshing embrace!

Duchess Fall is named after the Duchess of Windsor, who allegedly visited the falls during the British Raj. While historical records confirming the visit are scarce, the name has stuck and adds to the mystique of the location. The falls are part of the larger Pachmarhi plateau, a region known for its biodiversity and natural beauty, which has attracted visitors for centuries. The area was once inhabited by Gond tribes, and remnants of their presence can still be found in the surrounding forests. The British developed Pachmarhi as a hill station in the 19th century, and it continues to be a popular tourist destination.
