Raneh Falls

Overview

Raneh Falls is a series of waterfalls and a deep gorge on the Ken River, about 20 km from Khajuraho and close to Panna Tiger Reserve. The canyon is about five kilometres long and some 30 metres deep, cut through pink, red and grey granite and dolerite.

The water flows strongly in and after the monsoon, while in the dry season the canyon shows its colours. Birds, crocodiles and monkeys can be seen along the edge.

What to look for

• The coloured rock walls of the canyon
• The falls in the post-monsoon months
• The Ken River viewpoints
• Birds and crocodiles along the river

Visiting tips

• Visit after the monsoon (October onward) for water and green scenery.
• Keep to the viewpoints and railings: the cliffs are steep.
• It pairs well with a Panna Tiger Reserve safari.

Why visit with a private guide

A private guide shows you where to stand, when to arrive and what most visitors miss at Raneh Falls, and fits the visit around the rest of your day.
