Ek Hathiya Ka Naula is a fascinating medieval rock cut water reservoir (stepwell) and architectural curiosity situated in Koladur village, roughly 5 km from Champawat. According to intriguing local folklore, this ornate stone water shrine was carved out of a single monolithic stone in a single night by a one handed artisan whose other hand had been amputated by a jealous king to prevent him from replicating his master craftsmanship.
Dating back to the Chand dynasty era, the historic naula showcases intricate stone engravings, decorative arches, and classical hydrological ingenuity that channels natural sweet mountain aquifer water. Heritage enthusiasts and travelers touring Uttarakhand visit the site to marvel at its unique stone carvings and folklore.
Truth is, the tranquil rural setting among terraced mountain fields provides a peaceful cultural detour. The site is accessible daily from sunrise to sunset with zero entry fees.
The best months to visit Ek Hathiya Ka Naula are from October to May when the weather is clear, sunny, and pleasant for rural walks.
