Bambarakiri Ella is a beautiful three-tiered waterfall nestled in the Knuckles Mountain Range of Sri Lanka, known for its scenic suspension bridge and lush surroundings.
  • Suspension Bridge with a View: The waterfall is famous for its old suspension bridge. The bridge crosses the stream and gives visitors a thrilling vantage point.
  • Set in a Tranquil Forest: The waterfall is located in a dense forest near Rattota. This provides a peaceful retreat for nature lovers.
  • A Multi-Part Cascade: Bambarakiri Ella flows in two or three stages. A beautiful pool forms at the base of each stage.
  • Easy to Access: The waterfall is a popular stop for travelers visiting Riverston. It is easily accessible with a short walk from the main road.
  • Offers a Hidden Mini-Waterfall: A short walk into the jungle past the main fall leads to a smaller, more secluded waterfall. This is called Mini Bambarakiri Falls.
