Shohosrodhara falls, an another waterfall, located in 2 km walking distance from Suptadhara falls. This falls has almost no water like Suptadhara falls in the dry season. From the flow of the falls, "Suptadhara falls" is created. So it’s certain that if here is no water, you cannot expect any water at other one too.

From the top of the hill, you have to get down using the stairs to reach the bottom of the Shahasradhara falls. It’s easy to get down, but it’s a bit hard to get up. It will cost plenty of your energy. So be prepare for this.

সুপ্তধারা ঝর্ণা থেকে মাত্র ২ কিলোমিটারের হাঁটা দূরত্বে সহস্রধারা ঝর্ণাটি অবস্থিত। সুপ্তধারা ঝর্ণার মত এই ঝর্ণাটিতেও শুষ্ক মৌসুমে পানি থাকে না। এই ঝর্ণাটি সুপ্তধারা ঝর্ণার পানি থেকেই সৃষ্ট। পাহাড়ের উপর থেকে সিঁড়ি দিয়ে আপনাকে সহস্রধারা ঝর্ণার নীচে নামতে হবে। মনে রাখতে হবে ঝর্ণায় নামার কাজটি সহজ হলেও পাহাড়ে ওঠার কাজটি কিন্তু বেশ কঠিন এবং এজন্য আপনাকে প্রচুর শক্তি খরচ করতে হবে।
