Jogi Cave

 

 

Gadiya Mountain in Kanker district has a natural form of a fort. This mountain has a tank that never dries.

The tank is named Sonai-Rupai after the daughters of the Kandra king, Dharma Dev, who established his capital on the mountain. To the south of the tank is a cave, Churi Pagar, which provided safe refuge to the King, his family and 500 people in case of attack.

Towards the southeast part of the mountain is a 50 meter long cave, Jogi Cave, where monks used to meditate. A small pond in this cave flows over the rocks like a waterfall.

The Doodh River flows at the bottom of the mountain. Thousands of devotees celebrate Mahashivratri by climbing this mountain.
