From Dhamtari, one has to go towards Nagari Sihava road and reach upto Kotarwahi village which is near about 25 kms(approx.) from District Head-Quarter. From Kotarwahi, one has to go upto Narhara Village which is nearly 6kms from Kotarwahi, which is the biggest Gram Panchayat nearby. Again, for waterfall, one has to traverse the forest nearly 5kms inside to meet the marvel. So its makes a journey of about 3-4 hours for a tourist, to reach this marvelous place covering nearly 125 kms (approx.).

One can also visit this place through an alternate route, besides that's the shorter route. From Raipur, one has to reach Kurud (A block of Dhamtari District, nearly 50kms from Raipur), from which(Kurud Welcome Gate), we can take a left traverse to State Highway upto 16-20 kms to reach Village Megha. From Megha, Narhara is nearly another 15-20 kms, with a well-built single road, completely ornamented by lush green forest and plantation on the either side of roads through out your journey. So its approximately 90kms from this route.

 Narhara Waterfall (Lower Stage)

Narhara is basically a perennial waterfall, but the width becomes very feeble by the end of winters and in summers. So one can enjoy its beauty in Rainy and Winter season. Raipur and Dhamtari are the nearest Railway stations, whereas Raipur is the nearest Domestic Airport available in all seasons of the year.

Salient Features
============

The brook falls from a height of nearly 10-15 feets(in a cascade manner) to form this beautiful waterfall. The water flowing in the upstream is quite shallow, allowing the tourist the pass through the banks, even at the time of Rainy season, makes it favourable and secure place for families too.
