The Uma Oya Falls / Uma Oya Dunhida Falls Ella off Godunna is a rather unknown waterfall away from the hustle and bustle in a picturesque landscape on Uma Oya.

To reach the waterfall you need to travel 25 kms from Hali-Ela on the passing Ketawala upto Godunna. From Godunna, take the the road to Wasanagama. This is a dilapidated road through chena cultivations and elephant fences. Passing Wasanagama travel upto the Bathmedilla Anicut across Uma Oya. The waterfall lies about 450 meter above this anicut.
