Naddi 1/undefined by Tripoto

Naddi

Naddi waterfalls is a 3-4 km trek from a fork in the road on the way to Dharamkot. However, we took the route by road in our car to Naddi Viewpoint which passes the Dal Lake. On this road is the best Mutton momos that I ever had and the view of Himalayas from the view point in front of Dragon Resort Hotel would leave you open mouthed. This was the first time my parents were seeing snow clad mountains of such a towering height this close. A 20 minute walk from the viewpoint through a mud path brings you to a tranquil waterfall, hedged in by huge river rocks. There is practically no crowd at this offbeat location and yet it is one of the easiest waterfalls to reach with virtually no ascents or descents. It's easy to locate too- you can ask anyone about the waterfall once you reach Naddi. The place also has a temple with a dome that represents all the religions in India.
Later, I got the bed allotted by 10:30 Am the manager was kind enough for early check-in. So, I got freshen up quickly and then I don’t have plans for the day so, suddenly Ani who is the volunteer, he is such a cool guy I met. He has come to the room asked any plans for the day. I said, “No”, so he asked for the small hike to Naddi village I was like sure. I’m ready for it. So, We were 4 of them it was a 4km hike and we were joined by a special guest “A Dog” it’s another beautiful day with such a kind-hearted dog to come along with us for the whole hike.
