Welcome to Jalavane Waterfall

Nestled in the lush Western Ghats, about 50 km from Belagavi, Jalavane Waterfall (also called Jalavane Falls or Jalavane Jharna) is a hidden paradise known for its untouched natural surroundings, forest trails, and crystal-clear waters.

It’s one of the least commercialized waterfalls in North Karnataka, offering peace and raw scenic charm.
