Our children's enjoying this trip so much cause this place is not so far from the city and it does not take much time to reach the falls. Due for the Eid holiday we don't face any jam in the road.

Many people came to Khaiyachara in the first phase and came back to the wet water. But from the first step, all the fun started! On the left side of the first step, a vertical wall has emerged, it has to rise, sometimes with roots, legs with different small holes. At every moment you will feel that you fall asleep. In this way, you will be gradually coming up with various challenges in different steps. Sometimes you can get two natural ponds on the way. You can get up again and again in a few hour times. But coming down is another adventure special.

Awesome Place, on this trail we can find few Big Waterfalls which are amazing. And also we can see some Underground deep cave filled with water and fresh water natural pool. Yeah if you want to go to the 1st step of the waterfall you will have to climb and the trail is little bit Dangerous.
