Deraniyagala area is blessed with number of waterfalls and water level of these falls are high throughout the year due to good rainfalls. Most of these falls are less in height but rich in beauty.

We had a little bit bad habit from a long time, it is that when my friend have a faraway client visit he get join me to that visit. But with the official permission we make that visit for full time, hence we do the visit early morning and use the rest of the time to our Adventure tours. It is mainly waterfall hunting.

Although I describe all these waterfalls under Rathnapura-Kalawana road, they are situated some distance away from the main road except Rajanawa Falls. Road condition of Rathnapura-Kalawana road is good following constructions. But road conditions are not good in some byroads.

After two very successful Waterfall Hunts, I decided to do a 3rd on 14 May (Vesak Full Moon Poya Day) immediately after the 2nd on 13 May. Vesak Poya brought back some very sweet memories of our Bathalegala Hike first-ever as a team.

Fortunately Tony too was on leave and after a exhausting but exhilarating journey around Kuruwita, Siripagama and Wewelwatte we decided to shift our focus to yet another waterfall mine, Deraniyagala. The foundation was laid thanks yet again to Ashan when he did a marathon of waterfall hunting a few months back which resulted in his record 100th post.
