Beauty of Bulathkohupitiya

Bulathkohupitiya is a collection of waterfalls and water streams. Bulathkohupitiya road will continue to Dolosbage and then to Nawalapitiya via Pelampitiya and Dedugala villages. These areas are the wonders of the nature. Because the environment, nature, village life, mountains and rivers.

We started our journey on early morning from Colombo and reached to the Ruwanwella at 5.30am. Then we proceed along the Bulathkohupitiya road and came to the first waterfall of our journey. Suramba fall is about 30m highest fall near Bulathkohupitiya. We came to the top of the fall and then got down via the Rubber estate and found the foot path to the fall from a paddy field. There are many leeches around this area and the climate is still under dark.

Then we continue the journey to Dedugala and met the Rikilla fall at our left side. It is a thin fall and moving to side to side with the wind. After that we stopped our bikes at Nalagana Fall and walked few meters to the main fall. Nalagana fall is a beautiful one in this area as well as some tele dramas and music videos were done at here. There is a warning notice on a huge rock mentioning that the water level will be higher at any time without prior notice.
After that we came to the Rukmale fall. It is about 10m highest chubby waterfall situated at a bend. We spend few minutes over there and enjoyed lot with photography. Then we continue the tour to Nawalapitiya and some time we struck into heavy misty environments near Dolosbage.
