Location
1. District : Kegalla
2. Nearest Town : Bulathkohupitiya

Height : 30m

Introduction in brief :

This spectacular water fall is found at Pallampitiya village, in Bulathkohupitiya DS division. Pallampitiya is one destination of public transport service (Bus) started from Bulathkohupitiya, as it is the terminal of the paved road of Bulathkohupitiya – Dolosbage (B588) route.
To reach the base of the fall, you have to walk nearly 750m on a gravel road and climb down and trek another 500m along a tea estate.
Since our visit was in dry season, the first glimpse was not very attractive for us but when we reached the base, we found her beauty. The base pool was a shallow one and not enough for a cool dip.
Return journey was a continuous ascend and a tiring one.
