Beautiful and Stunning Dumbara Waterfall

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: “Dumbara Waterfall” or “Dumbara Ella” is situated in middle of the Knuckles mountain range in Sri Lanka.

At the foot of the 20m-high Dumbara Falls there is a cave that can accommodate up to eight people. The pools near the fall are of great zoological importance to Sri Lanka as found here are several species of fish, such as Garra phillipsi, Puntius martenstyni, Puntius srilankensis, Labeo fisheri and fresh water shrimp, as well as the otter (Lutra lutra).

The fall is situated in the Kalupahana area, Matale District (Laggala Divisional Secretariat). Take the road from Matale via Rattota for 36km, or travel the 7km from Laggala, to reach the ancient villages of Illukumbra, Rathninda and Mahalakotuwa, which belong to the Dumbara Forest. From any of these villages, it is then a four-hour trek through the thick jungle.
