Undulating hills, lush
valleys, waltzing streams, prowling wild animals-nature is at her resplendent
best in Phutka Pahad, 1,570 feet above sea level. Visit the old fort of
Kosagaigarh, encircled by natural walls and camouflaged by dense vegetation. It
can be accessed only through a tunnel that was used for rolling down rocks on
the enemy.
Phutka Pahad is a monochrome
in rich greens and the drive to its top is breathtakingly scenic, and the
hairpin bends are almost vertical in some sections. Once on top, get a peek
into the town of Korba with the towering chimneys from its industrial plants
and the meandering Hasdeo river. A variety of birds belt out notes that are
music to the ears. Shutterbugs can delight in capturing some of these feathered
creatures.
Don’t miss the scenic environs
of Korba itself, all within a 25-km radius. Enjoy alluring Devpehri with its
Govind Kunj waterfalls on the bank of the Chornai river. Drench yourself at any
of several levels of the cascade. Join other picnickers and enjoy rock climbing
and swimming. Play ‘aqua football.’ Then head to Satrange Lake and enjoy
boating in its tranquil surroundings.
Except for the local population,
the outside world is as yet unaware of Phutka Pahad. Hence there is no tourist
infrastructure of any kind, except very good roads right to the top. While you
can spend an entire day in the lap of nature at Phutka Pahad, you must carry
sufficient food, snacks and water for your visit.
