One of the best hike I have ever done in my life, from Haputale town we hike through the Black Forest jungle, it was great adventure. It took almost 3 hours to reach the view point. We have able to see some wild life animals, birds, small mammals, lizards etc. we get down from the thotalagala side which is other side of the mountains to see lake Richmond. Highly recommend to do this hike if your in Haputale. Same hike you can visit the ravana cave too.

Amba Estate is an organic farm in the Uva Highlands of Sri Lanka. The farm is about 30 minutes drive from Ella, perched in a small valley above the Ravana-Ella Waterfalls, with views of Ella Rock and Lipton Seat. We produce a range of artisanal teas, coffees, spices and preserves, and we work with the local community to support a variety of educational, economic and environmental projects. We offer guests the opportunity to stay in one of the old Estate bungalows, learn more about artisanal tea-making, and enjoy our little corner of paradise. We offer tours of the farm and artisanal tea and coffee production every day at 11am. The tour is free, and you can also do a tea tasting after the tour for Rs.600 per person. No need to book ahead – just turn up.
We just spent three nights at Amba Estates Tea Farm/B&B and were thoroughly enchanted and pleased. The people are incredibly friendly from staff, to owners, to guides. We enjoyed wonderful Sri Lankan meals, great hikes including one at sunrise, and an informative tour of the tea, coffee, clove, and cinnamon fields which ended with a tea tasting. We happened to be there over Christmas and loved the kids Christmas pageant. Would love to go back!!!

The Mahamevnawa Buddhist Monastery Bandarawela, near the town of Ella, is home to over 30 Theravada Buddhist monks. From the top of their mountain they can look out at the busy world below. Anyone who makes the trek up the mountain will be rewarded with spectacular views and spectacular spiritual teachings of the Buddha. Curious people of all backgrounds are welcome.
I have been attracted to this place since I visited the first time. Leaving from a busy life for a while and staying in a "Kuti" on top of the hill, surrounded by green trees has become one of my favorites on every trip to Sri Lanka. Relaxing on the wooden floor under palm leaves roof, facing fresh air coming through the green mountains and talking about the inner peace of our lives?? simply, I am craving for it so badly..

It was a wonderful experience to visit this attraction. The Buddhist monk on site explained the history of the bridge. It is a fascinating part of Sri Lanka’s history. The location is a bit of off track, several kilometres from Badulla. If you are into history, this is a must visit location.

This is located between Belihuloya and Haputhale. Need to take a detour from main road in a narrow road and if you wish to go closer to the fall need to walk too....

Diyaluma situate beside Beragala Wellawaya rode 6Km away from Koslanda. If you need to use, public transport also possible to reach this place. Once you reach there, you can climb up few steps up if water level is law. There is a pool up there. But be careful to bath there, better not to. It's sleapery also.

We participated in the cooking class and garden tour at Ella Spice Garden and would highly recommend this activity to others looking to spend an afternoon preparing a traditional Sri Lankan meal. Our hosts communicated well with us, kept us engaged in the cooking class and lead us in the preparation of two curries, dahl and coconut sambol. We were all encouraged to participate and although this is more of an observational class rather than an immersive participatory cooking class, we feel that the instructions given during the class along with the notebook provided to jot down recipes and notes, will allow us to reproduce these recipes at home. The Spice Garden shop is also open at the end of the meal which gave us a great opportunity to purchase ingredients that are difficult to procure once home.

Went for a nice walk and got some great views of the valley and the water falls. You can buy cold water along the way at reasonable prices if you don't want to pack water with you.

A well known waterfall in Sri Lanka
Beauty of Uva.. most beautiful waterfall in sri lanka..located about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from Badulla town. The waterfall, which is 64 metres (210 ft) high gets its name from the smoky dew drops spray, (Dun in sinhala means mist or smoke) which surrounds the area at the foot of the waterfall. It's also known as Bridal fall as the shape of the waterfall reflect a bridal veil. The water fall is created by the river called Badulu Oya which goes through the Badulla town.
