The site of one of the
most fabulous vistas of river and forest, the 'Satkosia Gorge' where the great Mahanadi
river crashes in with monumental force is a dizzyingly enervating experience
for the visitors.
The meandering pace of the sensuous river, 22-km of thick forest, offers scenic
delights of the frothing, boiling water as it wends its way through the fabulous
gorge, considered to be one of the most enchanting spots in the world. It is the
ideal place for boating, angling and other adventure sports. The forest and
hills around the village have varieties of fauna to fascinate the visitors.
