Brahmana Ella Water Fall

Closest waterfall to the Lankagama Entrance. Only about 100m from the road. The place has a mythological history. There are safe spots to bath around here. Better to go with a guide and cover all the 6 waterfalls nearby.

Accessible after a worthy hike.
We did it as a part of a guided tour in the evening.
Roughly about 1-1.5km hike(moderately difficult) from entrance(we came from Mederiya,deniyaya side)

I had an amazing time seeing a gigantic waterfall after a big rain. The waterfall was overflowing with water, making it look magical and covered in mist. It was an incredible experience to witness such a massive and beautiful waterfall.

This is a vivid waterfall and the first of the cascade of waterfalls situate on Sinharaja Lankagama trail. It only takes a minute from the ticket counter to reach this waterfall. The base pool is deep, hence not a good place to bathe.

First waterfall you'll see when you enter through the Lankagama Sinharaja Forest hiking route. From the entrance it's located less than 1km travel.

Brahmana Ells is one of the beautiful waterfalls. It is situated at the border of the Sinharaja Forest belongs to Galle District. It is 31m high and the water source is Hariyawa Stream.
