Ghagra Waterfalls is a scenic natural attraction located near Belpahari in the Jhargram district of West Bengal, India, just a few kilometres north of Belpahari village. The falls cascade through a rugged canyon of dark stone, carved by the flowing waters of the Tarafeni River, creating a dramatic and beautiful landscape of rock formations and forest-backed streams. Ghagra is reachable from the nearest railhead — Jhargram Railway Station — followed by a short drive or local transport, or by road via the highway connecting from major hubs. The best time to visit is between October and March, when the weather is pleasant, and the waterfall is accessible; but shortly after the monsoon, the falls swell beautifully, enhancing the natural grandeur. Ghagra Waterfalls offers a tranquil escape into nature — ideal for photography, relaxation, or a refreshing dip in clear rock pools — making it a perfect weekend getaway from urban life.
