Baker’s Falls: An Exquisite Waterfall in Sri Lanka’s Horton Plains, National Park

It is always quite an experience to see waterfalls in full flow and it gets even better if the entire setting is tropical. It was such a setting in Sri Lanka’s Horton Plains national park where the Baker’s falls is located. One can reach this remote waterfall by going on a hour long tropical trek.

Baker's Falls has more water this time and more exquisite
I have been to this waterfall a couple of times, but this time around, the weather was different with a lot of rain and thus this beautiful waterfall was in full flow. I would have preferred blue skies too, but had to do with dense mist and grey skies.

But, irrespective of the weather, this waterfall along with its pure setting captivates one and all. One can just stay here and relish the surroundings for hours together.
