Telbaila is basically a watch tower built to guard over the Sahwashni ghat near Pali. It consists of two rock walls , the left and the right clearly differentiated by the col in between. There is a temple of local goddess at the base of the twin wall. There are lot of ancient man made water tank & caves at the base as well as on the climbing routes. Though not of much historic importance - the rock walls of Telbaila offer great rock climbing opportunities of technical grade.
