Course[edit | edit source]
Approximately 30% of the direct runoff from the majestic Mount Abu hills finds its way into the Sipu River, while the remaining 70% flows into the Banas River. This division of runoff showcases the significant role that the Sipu River plays in the hydrological system of the region.
Confluence[edit | edit source]
The Sipu River meets the West Banas River at a confluence situated 12 kilometers downstream of the notable Dantiwada Dam. This juncture of rivers not only holds ecological importance but also has historical significance for the local communities.
