The Mahanadi

The Mahanadi rises in Chhattisgarh and travels through Odisha, while a small part also touches Madhya Pradesh. It is bounded on the north by the Central India Hills, on the south and east by the Eastern Ghats and on the west by the Maikala Ranges. The upper course of the river runs north as an insignificant stream hut, after meeting the Seonath river, its flow swells as it enters Odisha. At Sambalpur, the Hirakud Dam on the river has formed a large manmade lake, which is also the site for some excellent views of the river. As the Mahanadi leaves this point, it runs along a tortuous course, piercing forest-clad gorges to enter the Bay of Bengal at False Point, in the Jagatsinghpur district of Odisha. The name gives you an idea of the magnitude of this river, but it doesn’t fully capture the visual magic of the Mahanadi. Around the Satkosia Gorge and on the outskirts of Cuttack, you can see a face of the river you won’t believe.
