Bambarakanda Falls is situated in the small town of Kalupahana in the Badulla district, about 5 Km away from the A4 highway on the Hatton-Beragala road. One has to take a narrow road, a distance of about 5km to the waterfall. If you travel by public transport, you have to get off at Kalupahana. You can easily hire a trishaw or simply walk.
The road is not suitable for large vehicles like buses or even mini buses. It is not advisable for travelling to the falls during the height of the rainy season as the road is often blocked with rockfalls and minor earth slips.
The road falls through a small typical mountain village which adds extra memories to your journey. The villagers are friendly and hospitable.
Bambarakanda is the tallest waterfall in Sri Lanka with a height of 263m and ranks 299th in the world.
The waterfall is situated surrounded by an emerald forest. After reaching the place one has to take a narrow foot path to get closer to the waterfall. The local council has constructed the footpath with steps and railings where necessary so that visitors of all ages could get near without much difficulty. The visitor has to walk through a small patch of forest on a slightly steep side of a mountain.
The local council has put up an observation platform closer to the falls.
