Ulugala Kaluwala Ella Falls
Height :38 meters
District :Ratnapura

At the top of the 38m-high Ulugala Kaluwala Ella Fall, there is a pool filled with dark water (Kaluwala), which gives rise to its name. King Mayadunne, of folklore, is said to have washed here.

Due to Mini hydropower plants and dredging of the forest, the water flow of these falls has decreased drastically. Therefore the best time to visit this waterfall is during the rainy season.

The Ulugala village (Ratnapura District Imbulpe Divisional Secretariat) is home to the fall. Take the road from Balangoda towards Pinnawala, past Pidaligannawala village via the suspension bridge over the Ranmudu River. Take the Kotiyakanda road at Ulugala.
