One of the island's taller falls where you can actually stand at the base — the pool below the drop is the reward for the stairs.

Aberdeen Falls drops 98 meters on the Kehelgamu Oya near Ginigathena, upstream of the Laxapana power stations. From the entrance off Ambatale Road, a narrow forest path of about 1.2 km with stair sections leads to the base pool.
