The spectacular scene of water falling from such a great height has been described as a sight to behold. The different formations of rock due to the erosion by the constantly falling of water have added to the beauty of the place.[5][6][7] The Hundru Falls at one of the edges of the Ranchi plateau is one of the several scarp falls in the region.[8] During rainy season it takes a formidable form but in the dry season it turns into an exciting picnic spot.[9] At the base of the Hundru Falls, there is a pool, which serves as a bathing place.[5] The Hundru Falls is an example of a Knick point caused by rejuvenation. Knickpoint, also called a nick point or simply nick, represents breaks in slopes in the longitudinal profile of a river caused by rejuvenation.
