Diyaluma Falls Hike: Adventure to Sri Lanka’s Second Highest Waterfall with Hike Lanka

What to Expect on the Diyaluma Falls Hike

The hike to the *top* of Diyaluma Falls is a moderate challenge, taking approximately 3-4 hours for the round trip. It’s important to note that there isn’t one single viewing point. Instead, you explore along the top of the falls, finding various pools and viewpoints. There’s also a path to the *base* of the falls, which is longer and more strenuous.

• Multiple Tiers and Pools: Discover various levels of waterfalls and natural pools perfect for swimming.
• Breathtaking Vistas: Enjoy stunning views of the surrounding highlands.
• The “Infinity Pool”: Find the famous natural “infinity pool” near the top (exercise caution!).
• The Base of the Falls (Optional): A longer and more challenging trek leads to the bottom of the falls.
• Local Villages: Pass through small villages and experience rural Sri Lankan life.
