The village of Nighoj lies approximately 20 km from Chincholi. Also known as Nighoj Kund or Takali Haji, these naturally formed potholes, carved from black and reddish basalt rock by the Kukadi River, are considered among the largest in Asia by geologists worldwide.
The river Kukadi, which flows near the village, experienced sudden geological disturbances that resulted in the formation of a significant canyon. The river carved massive holes into the rocks with mighty force, creating potholes stretching over three kilometres with an average depth surpassing 100 feet.
