Hum Hum Waterfall
হামহাম জলপ্রপাত
A waterfall hidden deep in the Rajkandi protected forest, reachable only after several hours of hiking through bamboo groves and creek valleys. It is an adventure route for backpackers.
Hum Hum Waterfall lies deep in the Rajkandi Protected Forest near the Indian border in Kamalganj district. It has a drop of about 45 m and only became widely known around 2010. From the nearest village, Kalanji, you follow a local guide on foot for 3–4 hours along creeks, through bamboo groves and muddy mountain tracks (6–8 hours round trip). The route involves wading across streams many times. In the rainy season there are many leeches and the path is slippery. The waterfall is most impressive in the rainy season, while in the dry season it is little more than a trickle. It is recommended to hire a car from Srimangal and set off early in the morning, wear non-slip shoes, carry plenty of water, and return before dark. As the area is close to the border, observe local regulations.
