Visiting between 7-10 am during December to April is best. At this time the water flow is sufficient, but crowds are fewer and the weather is clear.

There is no entry fee to reach the waterfall, only a nominal parking fee. Hire a tuk-tuk from the nearby village, it will be cheaper than a bus or private cab.

Om
Raske fakta: Dette fossefallet renner gjennom de tette skogene i Ratnapura-distriktet, faller fra 30 meters høyde og har en form som ligner et bodhi-treblad. Fossefallet faller i tre nivåer og vannet renner ut i Kuruviita-elven, som senere blir en del av Kalu-elven.
Høydepunkter: I regntiden når vannføringen er på sitt høyeste, høres fossens brøl tydelig på én kilometers avstand, og vannspruten skaper et regnbuelignende syn rundt omkring. Lokalbefolkningen tror at bading under fossen helbreder hudsykdommer, og det er grunnen til at tusenvis av pilegrimer kommer hit årlig.
Insidertips
- Wear shoes with good grip due to the narrow valley and slippery path; going in slippers or sandals can be dangerous.
- There is a small platform on the left side of the waterfall which offers the best photo angle of the entire waterfall; reach there before 8 am on weekends.
- Do not swim directly under the waterfall, the water pressure can be very strong; instead bathe in the natural pool formed on the side.
- There are no food shops nearby, so be sure to carry a water bottle and some light snacks with you.
