Sri Lanka's second-highest waterfall at 220 meters, located 13 kilometers from Ella near Koslanda. The falls drop in several stages down a cliff face, with natural infinity pools at different levels that offer swimming opportunities with mountain views across the Uva Province. It sits below the headline sights but earns its place on a longer visit to Ella, especially paired with nearby Ravana Falls. Entry is free and 3-4 hours including travel gives you a thorough visit.
What It Is
What you experience depends on the season. Spring and summer are the strongest months, but even in winter the grounds have a quiet appeal. Dress for the weather - you are outdoors the entire time.
Why Visit
The country's most impressive waterfall with unique natural infinity pools offering swimming with panoramic mountain views. It is not the first thing you should see in Ella, but with two or more days it fills a gap the major sights leave. It pairs naturally with Ravana Falls and Buduruwagala Temple - together they fill a solid half-day. Mornings are quieter if you want to take your time. Free entry makes the decision easy - walk in, see if it holds your attention, and leave when you have had enough.
