Dassam Falls, known as Dassam Ghagh in the local language, is a natural cascade located near Taimara village in the Bundu district, approximately 40 kilometers from Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand, India. This scenic waterfall is created by the Kanchi River, which is a tributary of the Subarnarekha River. The falls plunge from a height of about 44 meters (144 feet), creating a spectacular vision and a thunderous sound that reverberates in the lush green surroundings. As the water hits the rocky base, it gets fragmented into several streams, creating an effect of several falls in one, which is a mesmerizing sight. The ambiance around Dassam Falls is tranquil, making it an excellent spot for picnics and nature lovers who wish to escape the hustle of city life. A well-maintained descent with steps leads tourists to the foot of the waterfall. However, visitors are cautioned not to step into the water due to undercurrents.
