Bhim Pul

भीम पुल

The Saraswati River rushes through a narrow rock gorge, spanned by a giant boulder forming a natural stone bridge. According to legend, Bhima placed it there.

Bhim Pul is the most spectacular sight in Mana Village. The swift Saraswati River roars beneath the huge boulder, and not far away it flows into the Alaknanda River. Legend says that when the Pandavas journeyed to heaven, Bhima moved the boulder to form a bridge so that Draupadi could cross the river. Beside the bridge are a small Saraswati shrine and a tea stall. Across the bridge is the starting point of the trail to Vasudhara Falls.
