Description |
The Ethamala Ella Fall is so named as an elephant is said to have died after being swept along in the powerful water, which tumbles down an impressive 52m drop. The area surrounding the fall is alive with wildlife, particularly birds, whose songs mingle with the sound of the rushing water. |
