A brief summary to Jadukata River
Local tips
- Visit early in the morning to witness the river in its most pristine state, with fewer crowds and the best lighting for photography.
- Combine your trip with visits to nearby attractions like Tanguar Haor, Niladri Lake, and Shimul Bagan for a comprehensive experience.
- Engage with local communities respectfully, learning about their culture and traditions, and supporting sustainable tourism practices.
- Be mindful of the environment and avoid littering, contributing to the preservation of the river's natural beauty.

Getting There
-
Motorcycle/CNG
From Sunamganj town, the most common way to reach Jadukata River is by hiring a motorcycle or CNG (auto-rickshaw). Negotiate the fare beforehand, typically around 300-400 BDT for a round trip for two people on a motorcycle. The journey takes approximately 60-80 minutes along bumpy roads. Ask the driver to take you to Barikka Tila for the best views of the river.
-
Walking
If you are already near the Jadukata River, such as in locations near Tanguar Haor, walking is an option. Follow local paths and ask locals for the best route. The walk from central locations in the Haor to the river takes approximately 30-45 minutes. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes suitable for walking on potentially uneven terrain.
-
Ferry
To reach certain parts of Jadukata River or to cross it to visit attractions like Shimul Bagan, you may need to take a local ferry. The ferry crossing typically costs 5-10 BDT per person and 10-20 BDT for motorcycles. These ferries operate frequently during the day.
