visit the sissu water fall !!!!!!

Dr.Barai · Jul 31st, 2006, 23:21

There is a wonderful waterfall at sissu which is around 25 Km from Gramphu on the manali leh highway. This is undoubtedly the best and most beautiful waterfall in entire north India but is still nearly unexplored. Reason is not many people visit these areas and those who visit have lil information about its existence and generally have other priorities. The obstacle to those who like venture out is that from the road the fall is not seen propely(the base is not seen) and looks just like many other fall. U need to go closer to relish its beauty. Its really impressive!!! One can walk unto the base of the fall, which will take 15-20 mins from the highway. You can also climb up to the place where the water actually strikes the ground, as the climb is not very tough.
Those with lil more ethu and stamina could even climb to the top. One shepherd climbed to the top with around 20 kgs of luggage in no time!!!!
So next time u r in that region do visit this wonderful waterfall.

Well now! Yes, I missed it too last Oct. Wish I'd seen this post before that.
Is that second pic taken from the road, Barai?

I didn't know about this !

Incidentally, at first sight I read it as sussu water fall...silly me.

The tunnel opening is near Teling, which itself is 6 km before Sisu (towards Koksar). Wud be great if one can see it while driving out the tunnel in future!
But I have doubts if it's that close to Teling.

Question to those who have seen both Sissu and Birthi - which one is better ?

Naga · Jul 4th, 2008, 15:59

A couple questions:

Is this waterfall on the north side of the Chandra river, that is the same side as the road and Sissu village? Or is it necessary to cross the river somewhere?

Is there another name for the falls that would be used locally?

Balvar · Jul 5th, 2008, 03:06

Well the Chandra River needs to be crossed for Siisu Wall. never Heard of any Local name for the fall
