Tribes make up a sizable portion of the population in the Park.

Tirathgarh Waterfalls
The Tirathgarh Waterfalls are known as the “Milky Fall” because of the water’s white tint as it cascades down the rocky hill, giving the appearance of milk dropping. One of Chhattisgarh’s most spectacular waterfalls is the picturesque Tirathgarh Falls. It is right across from the Tirathgarh Waterfalls. Beautiful views are provided by the water falling from the hills that surround the falls. On the river Mugabahar, which springs in a lake not far from this location, gushing torrents of water rush down at an astounding rate from a height of more than 100 feet. The beautiful green trees that surround the autumn add to the splendor of the falls.
Kailash Caves
In the vicinity of Mikulwada, in the Kanger Valley National Park, are the Kailash Caves. The caves, which were only recently discovered in 1993, are about 250 meters long and are located 40 meters above sea level. Stalactite and stalagmite formations can be found there, which are breathtaking to view. A huge stalagmite formation in the shape of the Shivlinga is located at the end of the cave and is reached through a small opening. When tapped with a hand, the cave’s hollow walls produce amazing musical sounds.
