The Girmal Falls is a waterfall near Saputara in Gujarat. The largest waterfall in Gujarat is in the Purna Wildlife Sanctuary and is one of the best places to visit in Saputara.

Girmal Waterfall is over the Girmal River. It cascades from a height of over 100 feet. Girmal Falls, hidden in the deep forests of Dangs, is gorgeous during the monsoon season. The water crashes from high altitudes, creating fog clouds where tourists sometimes can see the rainbows.

The Gira river does a complete U-turn on its way to Girmal near the settlement of Gavdahad. The forest department has created an excellent outlook directly above the U-turn. Seeing a large green patch of Purna Sanctuary surrounded by a U-shaped Gira is a breathtaking experience. The Forest Department's Eco-Development Committee (EDC) currently operates a 'U-turn Restaurant'. It is a great relaxing area with four Girli Lodges, adjacent facilities, and an Interpretation Centre.
