Taradevi Waterfall Zone(unnamed): It is a largely unexplored and unknown part of Shimla Hills but is a natural wonder in itself. We have explored 3 waterfalls that have caved into rocky gorges 4 sides giving a dark eerie ambience to this place. The region is still largely unexplored. 2 of these waterfalls are about 100 feet tall and form pleasant shallow pools to dip-in below them.
