The Kadiyanlenawaterfall, located in Nawalapitiya, a green environment, gives even more charm to the already lovely landscape. The waterfall has a peculiar beauty that is unmatched by any other waterfall since it cascades down three steps. The initial part (8 m) descends as a single water stream.

The second section (7-8 m) descends over a large boulder. With a total height of around 25m, the third piece, which is 8 to 9 meters long, begins to collapse directly beneath the arch bridge. The magnificent aspect of the water flowing in steps more than makes up for the lack of height, despite the fact that a height of 25m may not seem threatening enough.

Water continues to strike the rock from a great height at each phase of the fall. As a result, the enormous boulders have little pools on them, making them perfect locations for diving.
