How To Reach Turturiya Waterfall

Turturiya, Chhattisgarh, India
The Turturiya Waterfall, or Turturiya Springs, is the natural feature that gives the entire area its name. The water is sourced from the Balbhadri Nalla which flows through rocky terrain. The name 'Turturiya' is derived from the 'tur-tur' or 'tutur' sound made by the water as it gushes through the r ocks, creating buzzing waves or bubbles before falling into a collecting basin. This basin, often called a Kunda, is constructed with ancient bricks, and the water flows out through a sculpted Gomukh (Cow's Mouth), a traditional feature in sacred Hindu bathing spots. The spring is also known by the ancient name 'Surasuri Ganga', highlighting its sacred status. This natural spring ensures a constant flow of fresh water throughout the year, even during the dry season, making it a reliable and sacred spot for ritual bathing. The area surrounding the waterfall is a picturesque picnic and relaxation spot, where families and pilgrims often gather. The presence of the water and the soothing sound creates a uniquely tranquil natural environment, blending spirituality with the peace of nature. The continuous, pure flow is highly symbolic for the devotees.

How to Reach

By Air:

The travel route is identical: land at Raipur Airport (RPR, approx. 100 KMS). From the airport, a taxi or private car is required to drive directly to the Turturiya Dham complex. The waterfall/spring is a key feature within the Dham area.

By Train: Alight at Raipur Junction (R, 100 KMS away) or the slightly closer Bhatapara station. From the railway station, hire a private taxi or take a combination of bus/shared jeep via Balodabazar or Kasdol to reach the main Turturiya village area.

By Road: The best road access is from Raipur (100 KMS) via the Ram Van Gaman Path route. Ensure your hired driver knows the way to the village Bahriya near the Barnawapara Sanctuary. The road network is better than the rail network for this final leg.

By Local Transport: Once you are at the Turturiya Dham parking area, the waterfall is located a very short, easy walk (a few hundred meters) down the slope towards the Balbhadri Nalla stream. It is easily accessible on foot from the Valmiki Ashram main area. Follow the sound of the 'tur-tur' water to find the spring.
