Dewathura Ella

About Dewathura Ella

Dewathura Ella is a waterfall set within the cool, misty hill country surrounding Nuwara Eliya. Like many falls in this elevated region, it sits amid tea estates and dense forest, reached by a walk that rewards visitors with views of the surrounding landscape as much as the cascade itself. The falls are the sort of destination that appeals to those exploring beyond Nuwara Eliya's town centre, offering a quieter alternative to the area's more frequently visited attractions. Visitors typically combine a trip here with walks along nearby paths or a broader exploration of the hill country's green interior. Sturdy footwear is advisable, as the terrain can be slippery, particularly during and after the monsoon seasons when the watercourse runs at its fullest.
