Beruwatta is a 50m-high fall, set amongst tea plantations and a plethora of mountainous flora and fauna, formed by the convergence of several brooks originating on the Rakshagala mountain. The cascading waters of the fall have been poetically likened to pure white cotton and a length of loosened hair, flowing from a fairy in the heavens, free for anyone to comb.

At the base of the fall is a rock that offers a perfect seat for quiet contemplation, and also a pool known as the Beruwatte-vila, from where two brooks converge to flow into the Weveldola stream. This stream is later joined by the Alupoladola and the Ravuladola, and finally flows into the Mahaweli ganga near Malwala. Both the Balakotunna mountain range and the Mahalassa estate are visible from the elevated ground close to the fall.

To reach the fall, from Ratnapura town, head towards Balangoda via Wevelwatte and the fall can be found in the village of Balakotunna. Alternatively, from the Wevelwatte junction, head towards Balangoda for 1.5km and turn right at the tea estate. From here, it is necessary to trek for around 100m along the track adjacent to the estate to reach the fall.
