Baba Siddhnath Ki Dari is a seasonal waterfall and natural site located in the Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh. The site is characterized by a rocky gorge and a stream that flows over terraced stone formations, primarily active during the monsoon season. It is situated within a hilly forested region known for its rugged geological landscape. The area serves as a local pilgrimage site, hosting a small temple dedicated to Baba Siddhnath. Visitors access the falls via a descent through stone steps carved into the hillside. During the dry season, the water flow diminishes significantly, exposing the underlying sandstone terrain. The location is frequented by locals for picnics and worship during the post-monsoon months.
