Summary[edit]

Description
English: Raneh falls are a series of waterfalls on the Ken River, located about 20 kilometers radially northeast of Khajuraho, Madhya Pradesh. They illustrate the hilly, river carved terrain of Bundelkhand, one punctuated by fertile valleys. The Raneh falls stretch over 5 kilometer along the river and form a 100 feet deep canyon. The water and mist washes over the pink, red and grey granite and dolomite.

The major falls run year round and are a short drive from the Khajuraho UNESCO world heritage site. The smaller ones appear in and after the monsoons for several months, and are along a hiking trail.

On the other side of the Ken river is the Panna–Ajaygarh Fort–Kalinjar Fort region. They too have waterfalls, along with profusely carved but much damaged ruins of dozens of temples in Ajaygarh Fort and Kalinjar Fort. This entire region is quite scenic, has a rich Hindu and Jain history from about the 2nd century to 14th century.
