Devi's Fall (Pokhara) FAQs In 2026 - 2027

Devi's Fall, also known as Davis Fall, Patale Chhango, or Devi's Waterfall, is a natural waterfall located in the tourist city of Pokhara, Nepal. The waterfall flows directly into a deep and narrow canal which has no end. It is a famous tourist attraction due to its unique underground water flow and scenic beauty.

The name 'Devi's Fall' is derived from a tragic incident that took place in July 1961. A Swiss couple went swimming but the woman, named Davi (Devi), drowned in a pit because of the overflow. Her body was recovered three days later in river Phusre with great effort. Her father wished to name it 'Davi's Fall' to perpetuate the memory of his daughter which later turned into Devi's Fall.

The best time to visit Devi's Fall is during the monsoon season from June to September when the waterfall is at its peak flow due to the rainwaters. However, visitors come all year round because even in other seasons, the site is quite attractive.
