The Kumari river issues from the eastern face of the Baghmundi uplands being covered by dense Sal forest (Mudali Reserve Forest). From the same uplands, the Kumari receives two tributaries: the east - flowing Kunwari Nala at an altitude of about 266 meters and the south- east flowing Hanumata Nala. The Kumari flows south – south east almost in form of a straight and steep channel and then turns east describing a less steep and more tortuous channel. The Kumari receives numerous small right bank tributaries from the Dalma range.

Kumari Dam can be reached from Purulia - Jamshedpur National Highway at village Urma. The reservoir can be seen far from the highway. Take the earthen red moram road and reach the lock gate of the dam. The villages are quite far away. One side is surrounded by trees and the other side is a plateau. The water in front, very nice in the rainy season. One day it may turn around. There is no place to stay for the night. However, there is a car camping arrangement by Caravan Tours & Travels. You may booked campers from Malgudi Resort. They have arranged it for you. You can stay here on the shores of the reservoir. Eat-drink-stay and enjoy outdoor activities together. You can also stay here to experience the Campfire and many others along with the experience of a stay in Tent.

Lastly, if you can hang out with a barbecue on a winter's night, there is no end to your happiness. Not so!
