Surathali Ella is a waterfall set within the hill country landscape near Haputale, a small town perched along a dramatic ridge in Sri Lanka's central highlands. Like many waterfalls in this region, it sits amid tea estates and dense forest, reached by a walk that takes visitors through scenery typical of the cooler, mist-prone uplands. Those who make the effort generally come to view the falls, photograph the surrounding greenery and enjoy a moment away from the roads and bustle of town. Haputale itself serves as a practical base, offering guesthouses and transport connections, and the waterfall makes a reasonable half-day excursion for travellers already exploring the area's trails and viewpoints.
