Galboda is not a famous railway station for many of Sri Lankans. There are some more waterfalls around this area such as Kadiyanlena fall etc. The most suitable vehicle is the Train, because the road after the RS is very bad and worst.
We went to the Galboda by bikes and found the small village after having rough rides among the unknown forest patch. A man told us a shortcut from the forest but it is actually a shortcut for hiking. Finally we came to the waterfall area and walked about 500m to the waterfall.
When we go to the fall it was like in a dry season, but had some water. Then we decided to have a bath, while we are bathing we feel that the water level is like increased. Then the fall is so beautiful and fully filled with water. Actually the water level was increased very high; it is like a flash flood. So many people died at here, especially around the gate where the water is carrying to the villages.
However we had a good bath and amazing experiences, we continue the journey to Thalawakele area.
