For the Nature-holic

To begin with I would say everyone loves their city and so do I.  And why wouldn’t I? I am born there, spent more than 20 years. You automatically start loving the place where you have created whopping memories no matter what. So without any further delay I would like you to introduce this city ‘Ranchi’. Now if you want to experience the hustle of city, you’re welcome and  if you want to embrace scenic beauty ,waterfalls and greenery you’re welcome again. In short I would say Ranchi would serve you with perfect blend of what you need to refresh your body and soul.Trust me it has lot to serve you. Now one question that is inevitable for everyone to ask – Then why we don’t have it in the mainstream map of Indian waterfalls and natural beauty? And why it has not attracted much tourism? Even I am looking for the answer. Unfortunately it has not been paid much attention to attract tourism. But for a nature lover I would recommend you to add it in your bucket list right now.

The charm of WATERFALLS

Ranchi is blessed with five major waterfalls that will make you go speechless. If I’m talking too much about these natural beauties then let’s dig into the unexplored:

Dassam Fall: The wonderful natural cascade falls from the height of 144ft making a splash down. 

The view is marvellous. It is located about 40km away from Ranchi in Taimara village. The name ‘Dassam’ indicates total 10 small and big streams including the main waterfall. The main attraction is the gorgeous landscape surrounding the waterfall.

Hundru Waterfall: Hundru is another splendid sight you would be capturing. It is around 28km away from Ranchi. 

Here you can take bath as it is less risky than Dassam and top idea for picnic spot. Wow! The idea of picnic at waterfall is something any nature lover would think.

Jonha Waterfall: This waterfall is also known as Gautam Dhara. It has historical significance and is believed that  Lord Buddha bathed here. 

 

This marvellous waterfall is located on the same way towards Hundru and a diversion separates these two falls.

Panch Ghagh:  The name itself suggests  that it’s a collection of impeccable five waterfalls. It is located approx. 55kms away from Ranchi. 

It is also a suggested spot for picnic and gathers huge crowd especially from 25^th Dec to 1^st week of January. You can come for a refreshing day out with your friends.

Hirni Fall: The immortal Ramgarh river flows through deep dense forest and takes the form of Hirni waterfall. In the dense forest, according to the localites there are caves which are home to tigers and bears. Hirni fall is 75kms from Ranchi and 22kms further from Panch Ghagh.

These are the five major and renowned waterfalls in Ranchi which you need to see right now. There are others like Sita and Lodh waterfalls which are not to be missed if you are here.

Now you already know that watching once is worth than hearing it for thousand times;)
