This place is a big disappointment. Although the name means, A Thousand Streams, there was a very thin stream of water flowing here , with many locals bathing and washing their clothes here.
I had visited Sahastradhara many years ago, and recall seeing gushing waters here with a lot of scenic natural beauty, and one could spend time walking along the stream. All the previous scenic beauty has been lost now unfortunately, in the wake of extensive constructions done here. Although lots of kiosks for eateries and places for staying have come up, there is nothing here which is worth seeing for tourists.
There's a small amusement park, but we didn't see anyone buying tickets, and the rides were lying inoperative in the absence of any visitors, when we visited around 1 pm.
It was quite disappointing to pay INR 100 for parking our car here, especially since we didn't feel it worthwhile to stop here for more than 15 minutes, considering the present listless state of affairs. This place should be taken off the tourists' sightseeing list now. It's just not worth the effort to drive so far here.

Not so much worth as proclaimed to be, unless one wants to take a thrilling bath under the cold waterfall. But all visitors may not be prepared for stripping to the extent of plunging into the water. Surrounding of this spot is not very impressive, historically there is a white Shivalingum with beautiful trees above and white milky water falling around. If you are on a city site-seeing tour in a taxi cab, nothing wrong in paying a flying visit here.

This is one of the worst places I have ever visited. The water was dirty and knee deep. Some people were taking bath in that. I wish they jump in to any city gutter, if they lose their mind. Apparently the nearby shop keepers maintain this area and canvass to attract tourists.
Complete wastage of time and money.

Nice place with the perks of having Sulphur water springs, which are known to be very beneficial. Be careful of the flow of the water as it can be very fast, with a small waterfall. Lots of activities including a ropeway (Rs.200 pp) and an amusement park. Worth a visit and carry change of clothes if planning to dip in the waters

Sahastradhara is famous for its medicinal & therapeutic value as its water contains sulphur. As a first timer to the town, we visited the place in June’22 despite our cab driver’s reluctance. However, the experience was not good, the place was dirty and commercialized with random constructions. The water flow also seems to be dirty, not sure whether taking a dip would be helpful or harmful to the health. Overall, no regret even if it is missed.

Nice place to visit when it's not crowded . Water and place were clear . We enjoyed taking bath in medicated sulfur water. We could find scattered crowd but our pond was literally empty . We were able to take bath peacefully. They provided paid lockers and clean toilets . Very convenient . Anyhow you should be very much careful to take bath in waterfalls. Floor was too much slippery , i had fallen down immediately on entering the water falls and got hurt on my head . Rather i don't advice anyone to enter there . Good experience .

Visited Sahastradhara with family, it was an amazing experience. We visited on a Sunday. Road is good. There not much crowd hence it was peaceful. Sahastradhara means Hundreds of streams. Water flowing from streams was pure and full of sulphur. Enjoyed the sky bus ride. Worth visiting place.

nothing to view, I dont know why is this place so famous. All local crowd bathing in Sahastradhara,
Basically the water if flowing from the top, the municipal commission has put in big polythenes to make it look like ponds so that people can enjoy, but water is very dirty, no upkeep. Better avoid it...and go to company garden.

Hi, my trip plan in mid Sep month is as : Mussoorie -> Shehastradhara -> Robbers Cave, guchcu Pani -> Tapkeshwar Temple
1. I am planning to visit Shehastradhara while coming back from Mussoriee, what are cheap modes of transport from mussoorie & duration of journey. How long does it take approx. to cover this place.
2. From there we are planning to go Robbers Cave, guchcu Pani so what are the cheap modes of transport from Sehastradhara & duration of journey. How long does it take approx. to cover this place.
3. From there we are planning to go Tapkeshwar Temple so what are the cheap modes of transport from Guchcu Pani & duration of journey. How long does it take approx. to cover this place.
Is it possible to cover all three places in one day & what time should we start from Mussorie?
Written 29 August 2016
greetings ! it takes about half an hour to 45 minutes depending upon the speed and the mode of transport you choose to travel between mussoorie and shehastradhara. mode of transports available are uttrakhand public buses and commercial vehicles such as sedans or suv that are available.
2. though i haven't got a chance to visit robbers cave and ganchu pani tapkeshawar temple, but have heard good reviews from the locals as well as friends. robbers cave is situated at one end of the city whereas shehastradhara is on the other. traffic can consume most of your time. so i would advise you to well your visit well in advance keeping the locations and their distances in mind.
3.mode of transportation could vary. when in dehradun you can proceed to one place to another by ola, uber,etc. To further travel to mussoorie you can hire a commercial car with or without a driver.
you can if you wish to, visit all these places in one day. but it wouldn't me as much fun. shehastradhara alone will take about an hour to two. (lots of chilled water to splash), same with robbers cave and forest research intuition (FRI) . take two days to cover all your desired places.
hope i have answers all your queries. let me know if you still need any help
thank you.

Is Sahastradhara on the road to Mussoorie from Dehradun?
Written 3 May 2016
No its not if you want to visit from mussoorie to dehradun then you have to halt at Pared ground is like (delhi metro central secretariat) you have to go there for almost all public transport by bus or vikram.
1. from mussooriee to pared ground via bus then sehastradhara to bus (Route No.2 )only (20 kms ,1+hr duration) seats available everytime .
alternate (via walking ) left your bus at kishanpur chowk near pacific hills then take vikram towards rajpur and left it at saibaba mandir from here take a walk of 3 kms to sahastradhara road then take bus to sahastradhara distance 5 kms.
