Sri Lanka can almost be called a land of waterfalls as this little island comprises of a huge number of the same. The Saint Claire Waterfall, is the broadest in the country with an unusual compilation of two waterfalls- the "Maha Ella" and the "Kuda Ella" and is about 265 feet in height. The bigger fall, "Maha Ella" which is 80 meters high streams down to the Kothmale fall after disuniting into three separate cascades. It eventually immerses into a big pool creating gauzy veils. The smaller one of the two is the "Kuda Ella" that is 60 meter high and is located on a tributary of the Kothmale Oya.
The collective gallant Saint Claire Waterfall is near to the main road from Avissawella to Nuwara-Eliya and is visible enough from the A-7 road and Main Line rail track close to Talawakelle.
We visited there on our way to the adom's peak.
