Olu Dola - Hulandawa, Akuressa

Beautiful place to visit to enjoy the nature with natural water stream. Road is bit difficult through the village. Enjoy the view, leave only foot prints. ✌❤👣

At between 15 and 18m wide, and 127m tall, Olu Falls is an impressive sight. The second highest in the Galle District, it cascades downwards in four streams into a pool at the base known as Olu Dola. The waters then merge with the Wee River, before flowing into the Kelani River, near the Saman Temple at Yatiyantota. The water serves the areas of Mevia and Gilma.

A wooden bridge spans the river and during rainy weather the fall's spray soaks passing villagers. The local people have noticed that the water volume has started to decrease, though there is still enough to sustain them. The water is also used for several turbines in the area and to irrigate the surrounding paddy fields.

The fall can be found 19km along the road from Yatiyantota town, heading in the direction of Seepotha (Galle District, Yatiyantota PC Amanawela GS area). The Kitulgala rest-house is 34km away.

We can see best natural environments in there. 🍃

Don’t destroy it 🥺

Olule Valley is a place of aesthetic value in the throne of the North.

Road is bit difficult through the village. But beautiful place to visit to enjoy the nature

Nice place..but the navigation is completely wrong.Destination is given the other place.Its'a well.be careful for the rural roadside, and take the correct advice from villager or guide.
Please keep country clean.

Good place to catch beauty of the nature. journey is somewhat adventurous and better to go with a team.

Keep it naturel and unharme by human hands. Great place to relax.

Nice place visit near to Akuressa town.

Beautiful, Lovely & Calm Place to Spend the Day

Awesome place, not too far from the main road

Very beautiful place a littel water stream, best for natural lovers, rough route Had to walk nearly 1km on foot 1km on water, hard to fine the router in side the village also 4 or 5km from the road,

A hidden waterfall. Has to walk through the jungle around 1km. To see the upper section of the waterfall had to walk aling the water stream around 1.5km

Wonderful nature has pure oxygen, cool and slowly moving water.

Its very natural calm area to have a rest. But the road are extremely damaged and can't travel by bike in rainy days.

There is two way to reach Olu dola. One is from hulandawa and other one is Lenama side. From lenama side you have to walk through the olu dola to find a small waterfall. It takes 2-3 hours and you have to go 4-5 kilometers through the dola. Not recommended for rainy days. Water level may increase suddenly.

Don't select rainy days for visit.

Beautiful place to bathe. please don't leave polythene or plastic..leave only your footprints and save the nature..

Calm place with stunning nature

The best place to bath. Clear water. Don't select the raining day for visit.

Beautiful place for Bath & play
