Jana Waterfall and Shiva Temple

A 30-foot waterfall tucked inside the quiet village of Jana, about 32-35 km from Manali near Naggar, accessible via a short 15-25 minute walk through deodar and pine forest past apple orchards and traditional Himachali homes. A wooden bridge and a small plunge pool add to the charm. The nearby Bijli Mahadev-linked Shiva temple, where the lingam is believed to be periodically struck by lightning, adds a layer of mythological intrigue. An ideal offbeat half-day excursion from Manali or Naggar.
