The adjoining spring-fed pool makes this one of the few hill lakes near Kandy you can actually swim in.

A man-made lake beside the Elkaduwa tea estates on the western edge of the Knuckles range, about 20 km northeast of Kandy. A path rings the water, and an adjoining natural spring pool is used for swimming.
