Komoldoho trail, also known as the Big Komoldoho trail to differentiate it from a smaller adjacent route, is a waterfall trail located in Baroiyadhala National Park, which spans parts of Sitakunda and Mirsharai Upazilas in Bangladesh. The trail includes four to five waterfalls, such as Ruposhi Waterfall and Chagolkanda-1 Waterfall, along with several smaller cascades along its course.[1][2]

Location
Geographically, the main trail is located in Sitakunda Upazila, while the entry route and a portion of the trail lie within Wahedpur Union of Mirsharai Upazila in the Chittagong District.[3][4] The entry point is near the Big Darogarhat Bazar area along the Dhaka–Chittagong Highway.[5] After approximately a 20-minute walk from the highway, the hilly section of the trail begins. A railway line intersects the path, and an entry ticket is required for access.

The trail
The first waterfall on the trail is Ruposhi Waterfall, named by locals for its scenic appearance.[6] It is estimated to be approximately 120 to 140 feet in height.[7] After ascending the initial section, hikers encounter a vertical rock about 10 feet high.[8] Climbing this leads to a point where the trail splits into a Y-shape.[9]
Taking the right fork of the Y-shaped path leads to Pathorbhanga Waterfall, which is followed upstream by several smaller cascades. Following the left fork, the trail divides again into another Y-formation. The right path from this second junction leads to Chagolkanda-2 Waterfall, while the left path leads to Rihuichhori Waterfall.[10]
Returning to the earlier Y-junction and taking the left path leads to Chagolkanda-1 Waterfall, which features a vertical drop of approximately 50 feet.[3][11][12]
