Rivers, lakes & waterways

Waterways define much of the landscape in the Garo Hills, providing both sustenance and natural beauty to the Tura region.

* **Ganol River:** The most prominent river flowing near Tura. It supplies fresh water to the town and powers local micro-hydro projects. The scenic Pelga Falls are located on the course of this river. * **Simsang River:** The longest river in the Garo Hills. While it doesn't flow directly through Tura, the city serves as the base for exploring the river's path eastward through towns like Williamnagar and Baghmara. * **Waterfalls:** The surrounding hills are dotted with spectacular cascades, particularly active during the monsoon season, including Rongbang Dar and Pelga Falls.
