The fall is located in the village of Pothatawela, near Laggala in Matale District’s Laggala PSD. From Matale or Lagalla, travel to Illukumbura. One of the interesting features of this fall is the cave behind the fall. Steps have been cut to reach this cave and can be safely reached even when the fall is at full flow.

 

Though the road is not in a good condition from Illukkumbura, the fall can be reached in any vehicle. Once you pass the pitawala pathana, there is a concrete road to Puwakpitiya. Entrance to the fall is approx. 8.5 km on this road. From here you need to climb down about 200 m on a path to reach the viewing platform. If the vehicle does not have a high ground clearance, you may have to park the vehicle about 1.5 km before the entrance and walk the rest.
