Galboda Ella, Natural waterfall in Nuwara Eliya District, Sri Lanka.

Galboda Ella is a waterfall in the Nuwara Eliya District that drops over steep rock faces with width varying by season. The water flows through several tiers and collects in small pools at the base before continuing downstream.

The Colombo–Badulla railway line, which passes through Galboda between Nawalapitiya and Watawala, gave the village its only transport link; the falls lie about 2 km from Galboda Station. The area receives over 4500 mm of rain a year, 60% from the south-west monsoon, with a dry season from January to February.

The name Galboda means "fall adjoining the stone", taken from the large boulder at the foot of the cascade. The fall lies beside the Colombo–Badulla railway line, and villagers from the isolated settlement between Nawalapitiya and Watawala rely on that line as their main transport. At certain times of year the water divides into two streams.

The best access is by train to Galboda Station on the Colombo-Badulla line, followed by a marked trail of about one hour to reach the waterfall. Sturdy footwear is important since the path becomes slippery after rain and parts of the route are steep.

The name Galboda means "fall adjoining the stone", taken from the large boulder at the foot of the cascade. Depending on the season the water drops in two separate streams, and annual rainfall here exceeds 4500 mm, 60% of it from the south-west monsoon.
