During the rainy season, the stream of Khoiyachora cascade becomes more powerful and robust. The water of this fall is so cool and transparent. Throughout the way of this trail is not so smooth but the range is completely inflexible and some places slender. You will be pleased with the rainy mountain, dazzling beauty of green hill, cool fountains, jhiri path and hilly roadside with some flat land.

We were a team of 10. Started the journey from Dhaka to Khoiyachora Waterfall at the middle of August 2016 by a microbus. Everything was alright. A heavy rain was started, before reaching the Mirshorai we had to stop the journey at a petrol pump due to bad weather. Until the morning we passed more than 2 hours at the same place. We were confused but finally we started the rest of the tour by the welcome of the shiny morning.
