This is one of
several falls located in the Walawe Valley, Ratnapura District. The double-streamed
fall (20m in height) flows through jungle, from Ravana Mountain to the Walawe
River. Its source is the western slope of the 1806m-high Meriyakotte Reserve
from where it flows to the valley. At a height of about 900m there is an
abrupt drop that creates the fall.
Diyan Falls is
25km from Balangoda. There is a difficult road running from Fairlowen to
Meriyakotte through 3km of jungle. The fall is situated at the end of this
road. An alternative route runs from Balangoda Charaka Mountain via Ravana
Mountain to the fall. A four-wheel drive vehicle is recommended.
