We-Oya Ella Falls

There are two falls plunging into the same stream in the thick jungle, seen from the road from Yatiyanthota to Pahala (lower) Palanpitiya.

It is about 20m (66ft), but provides an eye-fiesta due to the total scenario.  

I used this for my desktop wall paper.

Kithul Ella Falls

This 15m (50ft), waterfall is by the side of road to Palanpitiya (same as above) at Malalpola.

It's water joins to the We Oya.

Our first sighting of the Gorok Ella was from this place.

Gorok Ella Falls

Along the same road towards Palanpitiya, this beautiful and mystic water fall can be seen within the thick jungle. It is about 20m (66ft) tall and flows down to We Oya.

Ada Ella (a`q` a#l!l) Falls

This is just beyond Kitul Ella Falls. The fall is seen best on the bridge over the stream, but it plunges from the top of the mountains in several cascades and not visible due to the thick scrub.

Local people believe of an eel with golden ear rings inhabits this tiny waterfall and it's stream to this day!!. The name "Ada" means eel in Sinhala.

Olu Ella Falls

The same road to Pahala Palanpitiya, close to Amanawela crosses this gigantic waterfall which is the third tallest in the island. It plunges in two parts and second part, a gigantic curtain of water can be seen only if one care to descends down the road to its stream.

The onlookers are constantly being sprayed by a shower of water from the fall. The bridge of the fall is made up of Wood and well maintained (there is a bus service).

The total height is about 200m (660ft) and this is a water fall only about 100km off Colombo on a good motorable road.
