Horinmara Kundo Waterfall

Type: Waterfall

Contributed By: Nayeem ,Lonely Traveler

Brief

This waterfall is known as Horinmara Kundo Waterfall (হরিনমারা কুন্ড ঝরনা). The waterfall has a beautiful basin underneath with pristine green water that was slightly colder. The waterfall was dropping directly on that basin. And it doesn’t have any space at the front side (blocked by a small mound). That’s why it is not possible to get a full view of the waterfall from the front (or any places).

Once upon a time, this area was having a lot of wild deers. However, by the grace of our greedy human nature, they have almost been vanished. During that golden era, lot of deers used to come here near the basin to drink water. This basin was always filled with water regardless the season. And the deers used to slack their thirst from here. And we shameless human used to hunt them from here. That’s why the name of the waterfall is Horinmara Kundo Waterfall (হরিনমারা কুন্ড ঝরনা) or Horinkundo Waterfall (হরিনকুন্ড ঝরনা).

This is known as Toiduchhori Jhorna-2 (তৈদুছড়ি ঝরনা-২) to us, and Kasing Jhorna (কাসিং ঝরনা) to the local Tripura (ত্রিপুরা) tribe. The height of this waterfall is slight bigger than the previous one. But to my judgement, previous one was more delicate than this one. Water of this Kasing Jhorna falls over a 'stair like' place beneath the waterfall and splashs all around. It was over 4:00 at the afternoon when we were wandering around the waterfall. ) [1] => Array ( [name] => {:en}Baklai Waterfall{:}{:bn}বাকলাই ঝর্ণা{:} [post_id] => 5342 [post_link] => http://offroadbangladesh.com/places/baklai-waterfall/ [thumb_link] => http://offroadbangladesh.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/baklai-waterfall1-300x200.jpg [post_content] => {:en}

Baklai Waterfall is possibly the tallest waterfall of Bangladesh. It has a height of around 380 feet. It is located near at the village Baklai, a village which is deep inside the Bandarban hills. To visit this waterfall, you need to have 5-7 days on hand based on your performance on the trek. It is accessible both from Thanchi and Ruma.

10/12 years back a group of enthusiastic travelers have traveled inside Bandarban and scoured the hills of Bandarban for more than a month. During that visit they discovered this Baklai waterfall from the top. They didn't watch it from the front/base. So they were not aware about the height of the waterfall.

Later on, DWay Expeditors have traveled a place near to the waterfall and only hearing the sound. Hearing the immense roaring sound of the waterfall from far couldn't refrain them to discover what it is actually which they later found out to be the massive Baklai Waterfall. And thus the waterfall came to the common knowledge of the public. Even today, very few travelers visit this waterfall due to the lack of awareness.

বাকলাই ঝর্ণা সম্ভবত দেশের সবচেয়ে উঁচু ঝর্ণা। বান্দরবানের পাহাড়ের গভীরে বাকলাই গ্রামে অবস্থিত এই ঝর্ণাটি প্রায় ৩৮০ ফুট উঁচু। এই ঝর্ণাটি দেখতে চাইলে আপনাকে হাতে পাঁচ থেকে সাতদিন রাখতে হবে। তবে আপনি কতটা হাঁটতে পারেন তাঁর উপর নির্ভর করছে এখানে আসতে কতদিন লাগতে পারে। থানচি এবং রুমা থেকে আপনি এই ঝর্ণাটি দেখতে আসতে পারবেন।

দশ থেকে বারো বছর পূর্বে একদল সাহসী পর্যটক বান্দরবানের গভীরে ভ্রমণ করতে যায় এবং প্রায় একমাসের অধিক সময় বান্দরবানের পাহাড় খনন করে। এই ভ্রমনের সময় তারা বাকলাই ঝর্ণাটি উপর থেকে আবিষ্কার করে। যেহেতো তারা ঝর্ণাটি সামনে থেকে দেখেনি তাই এটির উচ্চতা সম্পর্কে তারা অবগত ছিল না।

পরবর্তীতে আরেক দল অভিযাত্রী ঝর্ণা কাছে একটি স্থানে যায় এবং ঝর্ণার পানি পরার শব্দ শুনতে পায়। ঝর্ণার পানি পরার প্রচণ্ড শব্দ শুনে তারা শব্দের উৎস আবিষ্কারের জন্য অগ্রসর হয় এবং বাকলাই ঝর্ণাটি আবিষ্কার করে। আর এভাবেই সবার সামনে চলে আসে বাকলাই ঝর্ণা। এমনকি আজও খুব কম পর্যটকই ঝর্ণাটি দেখতে যান।
