Jogini Falls is a multi-tiered waterfall located near Vashisht Village, accessible via a trek from the Vashisht Temple. The site features a lower waterfall and a more secluded upper waterfall, which involves a steeper climb. The location is considered sacred by local residents, with small shrines situated at the base of the falls dedicated to the goddess Jogini. The water originates from higher altitudes in the Himalayas, creating a consistent flow that feeds into the Beas River valley.
