About this place
Bhimkund is a sacred waterfall and two-storeyed reservoir located approximately 100 km from Keonjhar town on the boundary between Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj districts. The distinctive feature is the two-level reservoir configuration resulting in dual waterfall cascades. The sacred history connects to Mahabharata legend—local tradition narrates that Bhima took his holy bath in this reservoir.
