As a cool mountainous getaway destination for the masses, Ella boasts some of the finest waterfalls on the island. Here’s a list of must-see cascades on a tour of this dynamic city in the hills.
Ella Gap Waterfall
While it may be one of the lesser-known waterfalls in Ella, Ella Gap Waterfall is in no way inferior to the more popular cascades in these misty mountain landscapes. This waterfall is revered for the stunning views it affords, and the best time to visit the Ella Gap Waterfall is during the late afternoon or evening when you can watch the sunset from the venue alongside the monkeys that show up during this time of day.
Diyaluma Falls
Located an hour away from the heart of Ella, Diyaluma is another staggering waterfall that’s long been considered a romantic location for couples and honeymooners. While it is possible to admire its beauty from the base, those who hike up to the top can truly take in the beauty of its vaulted location.
Ravana Falls
A tour of the Ravana Falls can be one of the most rewarding things to do for those holidaying in the area according to Travel to Ella and similar other blogs. This waterfall is easily accessible from the roadside, and it is important to get to this waterfall in the morning hours as it is likely to get crowded, being one of the top places to visit in Ella.
Secret Waterfall
While it may not be a well-kept secret any longer, Secret Waterfall is another spectacular setting to go for a picnic in Ella. Locals and travellers are known to spend hours sunbathing on the waterfall’s rocks and surrounding areas while swimming and bathing are also possible in the pool beneath the falls.
