History:
Bhatta Falls was once a lesser-known spot frequented mainly by locals. As Mussoorie's tourism grew, Bhatta Falls gradually gained popularity. Its relative seclusion and natural beauty made it an attractive alternative to the more crowded tourist spots. While some basic infrastructure has been added for visitor convenience, efforts have been made to preserve the natural environment surrounding the falls. The history of the falls is primarily linked to the development of Mussoorie as a hill station and its emergence as a popular tourist destination.
