Discover the Majestic Rahala Waterfalls

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, start your journey from Manali. Head east on the NH3 (also known as the Leh-Manali Highway) towards Kullu. After approximately 16 kilometers, you will see a signboard for Rahala Waterfalls. The waterfalls are located about 2 kilometers off the main highway, so keep an eye out for the turnoff. Follow the dirt road that leads to the parking area near the falls. There is no entry fee for the waterfalls themselves, but ensure your vehicle is suitable for rough terrain.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, take a local bus from Manali to Rohtang Pass, which runs frequently throughout the day. Ask the bus driver to drop you off at the Rahala Waterfalls stop, which is about 2 kilometers from the main highway. The bus fare is approximately INR 50-100 depending on the season and demand. From the bus stop, you will need to walk along a dirt path for about 15-20 minutes to reach the waterfalls. Be prepared for a slight uphill trail. Carry water and snacks, as there are no facilities at the falls.

• Taxi

  You can also hire a taxi from Manali to Rahala Waterfalls. This is a more convenient option, particularly if you're traveling in a group. Negotiate the fare beforehand; it should cost around INR 800-1200 for a round trip, depending on your bargaining skills and the taxi service. The taxi will drop you off at the parking area, and from there, it's a short walk to the falls.
