This impressive 92m-high fall cascades in a spectacular sequence of steps before flowing to the Pundalu Oya (river), the Kotmale River and finally the Kotmale Reservoir. The nearest town is Pundalu Oya.

Take the Kandy road towards Nuwara Eliya to Thavalamtenne. Turn onto the Gampola - Pundalu Oya road that leads to Pundalu Oya. Once there, continue for a further 2km to the two large tea estates called Dansinan and Shin. The fall flows between these estates and can be viewed in two segments, from above the road or below.

A bus also covers the route between Nuwara Eliya and Pundula Oya. It is one of six falls affected by the upper Kotmale hydro-power project
