The 'Ramboda Pass', the climb from Ramboda to Nuwara-Eliya skirted a cut granite rock on the side of the hill. This has been by-passed by a tunnel now. There is a waterfall before and after the tunnel. The above pictures show the Ramboda falls before the tunnel, the entrance to the tunnel and the waterfall after the tunnel.
To see a picture of the Ramboda Pass before the days of the tunnel click on each of the web-addresses below:-

Galkanda waterfalls on either side of the highway from Beragala to Koslanda, Sri Lanka

On the road from Beragala to Koslanda and Wellawaya before the village of Nikapotha there are two waterfalls straddling the highway. The photo on top shows the waterfalls above the highway and the second photo is of the waterfall below the highway. People of the village and travellers come here for a bath. The water is icy cold.

Alupola waterfalls, Wewalwaththe, Rathnapura, Sri Lanka.


The Alupola waterfalls lies close to the bridge crossing 'Pandy Oya' on the Wewalwaththe - Alup[ola road. It is about 21 miles from Rathnapura, Sri Lanka. The road passes through beautiful hilly country covered by tea and rubber estates. Click below to see a video of the waterfalls posted by me on Youtube.
