Additional Information

Diyaluma Falls, the second highest waterfall in Sri Lanka at 220 m (720 ft) and 361st globally, is located 6 km (3.7 mi) from Koslanda in the Badulla District, on the Colombo-Badulla highway. This waterfall originates from Punagala Oya, a tributary of Kuda Oya, which is further a tributary of Kirindi Oya. The term ‘Diyaluma’ or ‘Diya Haluma’ translates to ‘rapid water flow’ or ‘liquid light’ in Sinhalese. As per Sri Lankan historian Dr. R. L. Brohier, the Diyaluma setting is linked with a folklore about a tragic love story of a young chief who was exiled to the highlands and his lover’s failed attempt to join him. While the young woman was climbing up the rope made from twisted creepers, she hit against the rocks and lost her life. In an act of mercy, the gods made water stream down from the mountain, concealing the tragic event, thus giving rise to the name ‘Diyaluma’.

Unforgettable Diyaluma falls and forest hike - Amazing cool best place. Some places forest is so bright through which we climb up to the falls. Some place is is dark with shades. Once u reach the top the view and the experience is immeasurable. Best falls with natural pool. Have a help of a local to go up and ask them to check the waters before you get in. Upendra a local guide helped us. His no 0775474725.

The bottom falls - .RUKSHAN, thank you for amazing day that you gave us, we got a lot of pleasure from traveling with you to new places that are amazing for us. It is truly worth the effort though as there are several natural infinity pools at the top, all with amazing views. I want to note the fact that we drove slowly and succeeded in seeing everything, but in the right places we stopped and took photos. God bless you 🙂 We will come again)😉
