Kithal Ella Falls

Kithal Ella Falls, Ella Overview

Cascading down from a height of 23 meters, flowing past the gaps within rocks, this small but picturesque waterfall is frequently visited during the hike towards Ella Rock. The shallow waters of Kithal Ella Falls are perfect for a swim.

A fifteen-minute walk alongside the railway lines past the Kithal Ella railway station and amid the jungle brings you to this little-known gem. Take a bath in the falls for a brief break during the exhausting hike. The sights all around Kithal Ella Falls make for stunning pictures, both at the base and the top of the waterfalls. Capture the white spray tumbling down the rocks at the bottom, or climb up above for a fantastic view of the town and its greenery, courtesy of tea plantations and verdant forests.
