	The map alongside shows a part of the [[Chota Nagpur Plateau\|Ranchi plateau]], most of it at an average elevation of 2,140 feet above sea level. Only a small part in the north-eastern part of the district is the lower Ranchi plateau, spread over [[Silli block\|Silli]], [[Rahe block\|Rahe]], [[Sonahatu block\|Sonahatu]] and [[Tamar block\|Tamar]] CD blocks, at an elevation of 500 to 1,000 feet above sea level. There is a 16 km long ridge south-west of Ranchi. There are isolated hills in the central plateau. The principal river of the district, the [[Subarnarekha River\|Subarnarekha]], originates near [[Ratu, Ranchi\|Ratu]], flows in an easterly direction and descends from the plateau, with a drop of about 300 feet at [[Hundru Falls]]. Subarnarekha and other important rivers are marked on the map.
