Ravana waterfall
About Ravana waterfall
Ravana Falls is one of Sri Lanka’s most beautiful and widest waterfalls, cascading down rocky cliffs just outside Ella. Surrounded by lush greenery and linked to ancient legend, it is a refreshing and scenic stop along the hill country route.
The waterfall flows dramatically over several rocky levels, especially powerful during the rainy season.
Easily accessible from the main road between Ella and Wellawaya, making it a convenient scenic stop.
During drier months, shallow pools form at the base where visitors can carefully enjoy the cool mountain water.
The falls are linked to the epic Ramayana, believed to be near the cave where King Ravana once hid Princess Sita.
A popular location for capturing misty mountain backdrops and the beauty of Sri Lanka’s hill country landscape.
