Hidden among the thick wilderness of the Saptha Kanya (Mount Saints) mountain range, the Laxapana Falls is a ferocious cascade of water that never ceases to amaze the traveler passing by. Towering high at 126 meters, the falls are considered to be one of the more picturesque falls in the country due to its lush green surroundings and a stunning view of the countryside, which can be witnessed at the top of the falls, making it an ideal observation deck to view the natural splendor of Sri Lanka. This is the 8th highest waterfall in Sri Lanka and 625th highest waterfall in the world.
You can reach the top and bottom of the waterfall but its highly recommended to go with a guide. This is located in the Nuwara-eliya district, 16 k.m away from Maskeliya town on the Maskeliya - Norton bridge road, in a village called Kiriwan -Eliya.
