Aradunu Fall

Height:-   30m

Location:- Passara

Province:-Uva

            The 30m-high Aradunu Ella Falls is so named because of its bow shape. According to folklore, King Walagamba (an ancient ruler of Sri Lanka) took refuge from south Indian invaders inside a cave found near the fall. There is also said to be a tunnel to the rear of the fall that leads up to Passara Raja Maha Vihara (temple).

              Currently, the fall is dammed for the nearby tea factory and hydro-electricity project. As a result, the fall can only be visited during the dry seasons, when turbines are inactive.

             Situated in the Badulla District’s Passara Electorate on the Loggalla Oya (river), which begins in the Namunukula Mountain Range, this fall flows through an abandoned savannah grassland that is now used for agriculture.
