About Kitulgala
Situated in the central west of Sri Lanka, Kitulgala is a small town within the rain forest.
Interestingly, the white water rafting at Kitulgala takes places on the nearby Kelani River which was the location of the award winning World War 2 film “The Bridge on the River Kwai”. Only the concrete foundations of the bridge remain from the crowning scene when they blew up the bridge with the train on it!
