Located in the remote Ruma Upazila, reaching this majestic waterfall is an adventure in itself, requiring a trek through the rugged terrain surrounding Keokradong, one of Bangladesh's highest peaks. The waterfall cascades down from a height of approximately 200 feet over black rocks, its flow strengthened by the convergence of waters from Keokradong, Jongshia, and Jadipai streams before merging into the Sangu River. The surrounding landscape is characterized by verdant hills and forests, offering a tranquil escape and a chance to reconnect with nature. The best time to visit Jadipai Waterfall is between October and March when the weather is cooler and trekking conditions are more favorable. While the monsoon season sees the waterfall at its fullest and most dramatic, it also makes the trails more challenging and potentially dangerous. The trek to Jadipai involves navigating steep paths and, in some sections, slippery and challenging terrain. Along the way, you'll pass through tribal villages like Passing Para and Jadipai Para, offering glimpses into the unique cultures of the local communities. It is advisable to hire a local guide, not only for navigation but also to respect local customs and ensure a safe journey.

It's also important to check weather conditions and obtain necessary permits from the army before embarking on the journey. Despite the challenges, the reward of witnessing the breathtaking beauty of Jadipai Waterfall makes it a truly unforgettable experience.
