Kithulgala is a popular travel destination situated at Colombo-Hatton road. It is famous among genera public as people come here for a bath at rapid Kelani River. And it is the only place in Sri Lanka where white water rafting is practiced.
Apart from all these Kithulgala has another value due to some waterfalls situated around. This is my attempt to cover waterfalls and some common travel destinations around Kithulgala.

Waterfall hunting around Kithulgala | |
 From Yatiyantota town turn to Amanawela road and proceed about 10-15km to the Olu fall. On the way to Olu ella you could find Kithul ella, We oya ella and some other small falls. When we came to Olu fall we started to climb it up to the final drop point. It is not easy to cross the speediest water stream but we reached there and had a bath from that milk type water. |

Waterfall Abseiling on Handun Fall | |
 Waterfall abseiling is not very much popular adventure in Sri Lanka as its cost is high. This is good and the best activity to develop the self-confidence. Once we came to the facilitator we all went to the Handun fall at Kithulgala/ Belilena. Handun fall is about 60m high. It is the best fall to have this experience. |

Exploring Kithulgala – Camping Trip to Makandawa Rain Forest | |
 Water is life .Value of it cannot be measured in rupees or dollars. Not only for our basic needs but also for our pleasure, Leisure it’s the most commonly used thing. And for me if there is no water source it’s not a trip. I’d like to swim in swiftly flowing rivers and am desperate to dip in natural pools filled with Crystal clear water. When I jump in to water I forget everything other than dipping and swimming. |

Waterfall Hunt 2009 – Kitulgala, Mousakelle, Thalawakele & Dimbula-Pathana | |
 This was our last trip of the year! We started at around 5.30am from Nugegoda, On the first day the crew was only 4 of us! As always we kept our options open so at Kitulgala we took a detour which was not on plan, we visited the Kitulgala Beli Lena. |
