The journey

Pachmarhi is the only hill station in Madhya Pradesh, situated amidst the sandstone formations and sal forests of the Satpura Biosphere Reserve. This short highland break introduces you to the town's local markets, British colonial history, and notable scenic spots. You will explore prehistoric shelters and deep ravines carved into the mountains.

Over four days, the itinerary covers the viewpoints of Dhoopgarh and Priyadarshini Point, the plunge of Bee Fall, and sacred cavern shrines including Jatashankar, Bada Mahadev, and Gupt Mahadev. The tour concludes with quiet lake views and regional shopping before your departure from the hills.
