About Hundru Falls
A waterfall of about 98 metres where the Subarnarekha river drops over a rocky ledge, around 45 km from Ranchi. A long flight of steps goes down to the pool at the bottom, and the rocks around are slippery, so keep to the safe areas and do not swim. The flow is strongest from August to November. Go on a weekday, as weekends and holidays get crowded.
What to see and do
- Fall of about 98 metres
- Steps down to the pool
