Perched at 3000 feet above sea level, Daringbadi is an exquisite hill station in Eastern Ghat located in the Kandhamal District of Odisha. Surrounded in thick forests, valleys, plateaus and dotted with coffee gardens, nature parks, sunset points, this is as close as you can get to heaven. In winter the temperature drops down to zero and sometimes even dew drops freeze in the early hours and forms a white shroud of snow over the valley. Thus, Daringbadi is lovingly referred as “The Kashmir of Odisha” often.
Like most hill stations, Daringbadi too has a few gardens, parks and endless stretches of lush hill slopes and valleys. There is a coffee plantation on the outskirts of Daringbadi and an Emu Farm at Kirikuti located at around 14 kms from Daringbadi. The Lover’s Point around 13 kms from Daringbari is another beautiful spot where you would find River Doluri snaking down the hills and valleys.
