Hatipathar, Rayagada (Odisha)

Hatipathar is a beautiful spot for picnic[1][2] and one of the identified Tourist Centres[3][4](scenic spot).[5][6] of odisha located in Rayagada district of the Indian state of Orissa.[7][8] The scenic spot with two water falls on the river Nagavali, is situated at a distance of 3 km from the town Rayagada. The two huge boulders on the hill top appear like massive elephants. The name Hatipathar( elephant stone) derives from the scene which looks like huge elephants.[9][10][11][12] The 2006 heavy rains changed the course of the river Nagavali and damaged the proposed 10 MW Small H.E. Project[13] for which visitors are not welcome to visit this place currently.[14] However the revival project of Hatipathar waterfall is being taken up to give it a new look.[15] The nearby places of attraction are as follows.
