Diyabetma Water Fall

Diyabetma Water Fall

Height:-   (5m)
Location:- Koslanda (Badulla District)
Province:-Uva

         This little-known Diyabetma Ella Fall (5m in height) in the middle of jungle is rarely visited due to the difficult terrain. The water comes from the Walawe River, which springs from the Samanala mountain range and incorporates the Belihul River at Demodara. A dam built at Demodara has reduced the volume of the fall and it now only flows with gusto when the sluice gates are open. The water hits rock with huge crevasses up to 6m deep at the bottom before flowing on to the Diyabetma River.
