Rangala Natural Pool is situated in Elagolla, south of the Knuckles Forest Reserve. It is a natural freshwater reservoir that has formed as a water collection point and is a small part of the Kota Ganga. The natural pool is situated by the Kota Ganga Bridge.
Some levels of pollution were noticed. These could be partly washed in from the Kota Ganga river, and partly waste left by visitors.
Depth
At its deepest point, the Rangala Natural Point was 5.5m (18.2 ft) deep. Near the waterfall, the depth was about 3m (10 ft). This is based on the water levels of the day (19th of February 2021). It is possible that the depths can be shallower in the dry season, and higher in the rainy season.
