abalpur the capital and pleasure resort of the Gond Kings during the 12th century is famous for its natural wonders Bhedaghat.

Bheraghat (Marble Mountains)

Soaring in glitter splendor, the marble rocks at Bheraghat rise to a hundred feet on either side of the Narmada. The serene loveliness of the scene is one of cool quite, the sunlight sparkling on the marble-white pinnacles and casting dappled shadows on the pellucid waters.

In his high lands of Central India Capt J Forsyth wrote of them: The eye never wearies of the effect produced by the broken and reflected sunlight, now glancing from a pinnacle of snow-white marble reared against the deep blue of the sky as far from a point of silver; touching here and therewith bright lights the prominences of the middle heights; and again losing itself in the soft bluish greys of their recesses..’. These white rocks with views of black/dark green volcanic seams rise to 30m on either side of the Narmada river and in moonlight produce a magical effect.Boating on a moonlit night, when the whole stretch of water is transformed into a sheet of liquid silver is absolutely magical and enchanting.

Dhuandar Falls
The Narmada making its way through the Marble Rocks narrow down and then plunges in a waterfall known as Dhuandhar or the smoke cascade. So powerful is the plunge that its roar is heard from a far distance. The falls and the breaking of the volume of water at the crest present an awesome spectacle of nature’s power unleashed.

Excursion to Mandala

Mandla was the capital of the ancient Gond Kingdom of Garha- Mandla early in the Christan era. The Gond Queen Rani Durgavati took here when her army was concerned by Mugal forces under Asaf Khan in 1564. The fort here was built in the 17th century and is surrounded on 3 sides by the Narmada River. It passed to the Marathas and then to the British in 1818. The jungle has since taken over the ruins (only a few towers remain) though there are some temples and ghats in the town. The Gond Raja, Hirde Shah built a large palace in a commanding site nearby in Ramnagar(15 km) of which little remains. Kanha national park is about 40 km from Mandala.
