Katiki Waterfalls is a picturesque natural waterfall located near Borra Caves in Visakhapatnam district of Andhra Pradesh, India. Originating from the Gosthani River, the waterfall cascades from a height of about 50 feet, creating a breathtaking spectacle that is hidden within the lush greenery. The scenic beauty of the falls is enhanced by the surrounding greenery and the hilly terrain, making it an ideal spot for nature enthusiasts and photographers. To reach the falls, visitors have to undertake a moderately challenging trek through the greenery enveloping the Ananthagiri hills. The trekking path includes crossing streams and rocky terrains, which adds to the adventure. The water from the falls creates a small pond at the base, which is considered safe for a refreshing dip. The local tribes living near the falls sell local food items and bamboo chicken, which is a must-try delicacy. The serene ambiance and the scenic charm of the place offer visitors an escape from the humdrum of city life and a chance to connect with nature.
