Telhar Kund—also known simply as Telhar Falls—is a picturesque
waterfall located near Balumath in Latehar district (on the border
with Chatra), Jharkhand. Cascading from a height of roughly 50
feet, it plunges into a clear natural pool at the base. Surrounded
by dense Sal and Mahua forests, the falls create a tranquil
environment that draws nature lovers, day-trippers, and families
seeking a refreshing getaway.
Approximately 75 km from Ranchi and 25 km from Latehar town,
Telhar Kund is especially popular during the monsoon and
post-monsoon months when the water flow is at its peak. Its scenic
setting and unspoiled surroundings make it an ideal spot for
picnics, photography, and short treks through the surrounding
hills.
