Jonha Falls Taxi from Ranchi

Book a taxi to Jonha Falls (Gautamdhara) — a waterfall and hilltop Buddha temple, one of Ranchi's most-visited day-trip spots.

About Jonha Falls

Jonha Falls, also known as Gautamdhara, lies about 40–45 km from Ranchi on the road toward Purulia. A small Buddha temple at the top gives the falls its second name, and most visitors descend a long flight of steps to reach the base for the full view.

The falls flow strongest just after monsoon through early winter. The steps down and back up are a workout — worth planning for if you're travelling with elderly family members.
