Overview of Bhedaghat Marble Rocks, Jabalpur

Located 25 km from Jabalpur, the Bhedaghat Marble Rocks are a stunning natural marvel that draws tourists from around the world. These towering marble cliffs, standing up to 100 feet high and stretching over 25 km, line the Narmada River and create an awe-inspiring landscape. The sheer size and beauty of the rocks are enough to captivate visitors, but the real magic happens when sunlight hits the marble, creating a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow on the river’s surface.

The marbles come alive at different times of the day, reflecting a variety of colors under different lighting conditions, and are especially enchanting during the full moon, when they glow eerily in the moonlight. This natural phenomenon makes Bhedaghat one of the most unique and beautiful destinations in India.

Boat Ride to Bhedaghat

To truly experience the grandeur of these marble rocks, hop onto a motorboat from Panchvati Ghat. The boat ride takes approximately 50 minutes and gives you an up-close view of the marble cliffs, which are even more stunning when reflected in the calm waters of the Narmada River. The boat ride costs INR 30 per person, making it an affordable and unforgettable experience.

For those who love a bit of magic, the moonlit boat rides are offered exclusively on full moon nights, from 8 PM to midnight. The rocks illuminated by the silvery moonlight offer a tranquil and mesmerizing sight that is nothing short of magical.
