Jonha Falls
जोन्हा जलप्रपात
Also known as Gangaghat Falls, a hanging waterfall of about 43 metres in the forest, reached by roughly 500 steps down to the pool.
Jonha Falls, also known as Gangaghat Falls, lies about 40 km east of Ranchi, where the Ganga River plunges about 43 metres into the Lalu valley, making it a "hanging valley waterfall". From the entrance, roughly 500 forest steps lead down to the base, where you can feel the spray up close. Beside the steps are small Buddhist-associated temples and monuments. It is quieter and less crowded than Hundru Falls. Entry is inexpensive, and it is often combined with Hundru Falls and Sita Falls on an eastern day tour.
