We visited Miyunu fall and Manel cave on 11th August 2018 and after that hike we have noticed that we missed few waterfalls near by the area. hence we again planned another day trip to see the beauty of those waterfalls. There were 4 waterfalls around Gavaragiriya and Ayagama.
- Minee Fall
- Ritigas Fall
- Sipirimala Fall
- Miniran Fall
We were able to cover all of these waterfalls and we marked our return journey via Kiriella. These waterfalls are very beautiful and attractive but hunting them on rainy days might be difficult and bit dangerous.
