Geography & terrain
Raneh Falls lie in the Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh, 20 km from Khajuraho and 120 km from Jhansi — the canyon falls of the region, its 100-foot drops, the Ken river and the cropped rocks set on the Panna hills' edge.
History & culture
The falls' story runs with the 2000-era park life — the waterfall of the Ken river and the canyon of the cropped granite, with the falls' modern role as the nature stop of the Khajuraho circuit and the home of the 100-foot drops and the rock pools and the sunset viewpoint; the falls' history of the 2015-era ghats and the Ken-Betwa link plan and the monsoon's full flow, gives Raneh its canyon character.
