Ringre Falls
Place Details: Ringre Falls is a hidden treasure located surprisingly close to the heart of Tura town. While many tourists flock to the larger waterfalls, Ringre offers a more intimate and secluded experience. The waterfall is tucked away in a narrow valley, surrounded by towering trees and thick u ndergrowth that muffles the sounds of the nearby town. The water falls from a height into a clear, rocky pool that is perfect for those who enjoy a cold, natural shower. Because it is less commercialized than other spots, it retains a sense of wildness and purity. The path to the falls involves a short but pleasant walk through local plantations and forest patches, giving visitors a glimpse of the rural life that exists on the fringes of the urban center. The rocks here are covered in thick carpets of emerald moss, and the air is noticeably cooler and fresher. It is an ideal spot for those who want a quick nature break without having to travel for hours. For the residents of Tura, Ringre Falls is a local secret, a place for quiet reflection or a romantic evening walk. During the rainy season, the falls transform into a powerful curtain of water, but during the drier months, it becomes a gentle trickle, revealing the intricate geological formations of the cliff face. It is a place that reminds travelers that beauty can often be found in the smallest, most unexpected corners of the Garo Hills.

Natural Amphitheater : The "architecture" of Ringre Falls is almost entirely natural, forming a semi-circular rocky amphitheater. The cliff from which the water falls is composed of layered sedimentary rock, showing distinct bands of history.
Dimensions: The main drop of the waterfall is approximately 45 feet in height. The plunge pool at the bottom has a diameter of 25 feet and a varying depth of 3 to 6 feet depending on the season. There are no major man-made structures here, preserving the raw look of the site. A simple narrow trail of about 500 meters leads from the main road to the base of the falls. The natural drainage system around the falls consists of small rivulets that have carved miniature canyons into the soft earth over thousands of years. The absence of concrete platforms allows visitors to sit directly on the massive boulders that have fallen from the cliff over eons, creating a truly organic seating arrangement. -
