Thelgamu Oya
Thelgamu Oya is one of the main water resources in Knuckles region. It is a tributary of Amban Ganga, which eventually joins with River Mahaweli.
The above picture was taken from a foot bridge at the start of Maningala Trail. This foot bridge is situated at the border of Rathninda and Etanwela villages.
You can enjoy cool spring water of Thelgamu Oya at Illukkumbura too.
I am proud to mention that above image was selected for this wonderful site - Scenic Sunday.
Also, I'm thrilled to see that above picture is picked by Conservation Carbon Company in their blog.

Flowing water always means living lively.
Nice!
Water is dynamic, No shape, No color, but serve loyally to human, I love the picture because it shows water wiggles in remote mountain valley, no complaints, no shouts, but go and let people make judgment and tell..
thank you,
cool post.
beautiful shot!!
love the header, as well - makes me want to go camping...
i can hear the healing power of the water flow, i love how the contours of the rocks can be seen underneath the water.
What a beautiful river. I think it would be wonderful to hike along this river in any season.
I love where the water is given birth to, usually high in the interior of the mountains. It is truly a magical realm.
