Robber's Cave (known locally as Guchhu pani), located near Sahasradhara, is a river cave formation in the Himalayas, located approximately 8 km from the centre of Dehradun in Uttarakhand, India. The cave is about 600 metres long, and divided into two main parts. The cave has a highest fall of about 10 metres. In the central part there is a fort wall structure which is now broken.[1] It consists of an extremely narrow gorge formed in a conglomerate limestone area on Doon Valley's Dehra plateau.[2]
It is a natural cave formation where rivers flow inside the cave. The place is a popular tourist spot and which is now being maintained by Uttarakhand State. Local bus services are available up to Anarwala village, from where it is a kilometre's trek away.[1][3]
