The Chitrakote caption refers to the waterfall destination in Bastar, Chhattisgarh. Chhattisgarh Tourism places the waterfall on the Indravati River near Jagdalpur.
The name also appears with spelling variations such as Chitrakot. This is not the Chitrakoot pilgrimage area on the Uttar Pradesh–Madhya Pradesh border.
River and landscape
The tourism board describes the waterfall as horseshoe-shaped, approximately 95 feet high and about 38 kilometres from Jagdalpur. These published figures are destination context, not a safety assessment of the river on the day of a visit.
Visiting safely
The tourism board highlights the monsoon and post-monsoon period for viewing. River levels and access can vary: stay behind safety barriers and follow local advice rather than approaching an edge for photographs.
Check whether any boat service is authorised and operating safely. Do not infer swimming, boating or year-round access from a general tourism description.
