We want to jump off the blue train at Hatton to hike to Laxapana Falls before continuing to Ella for the weekend parties. Is it easy to find transport from the Hatton railway station to the falls.

Yes, from the Hatton railway station you can easily hire a tuk tuk to take you to the Laxapana Falls trailhead. It is roughly a 1 hour drive through winding tea estates. Make sure to negotiate waiting time with the driver, as finding a return ride from the remote waterfall area is very difficult.

Be very careful if you swim in the lower pools. The underwater currents generated by the falls are incredibly strong even when the surface looks calm.

The hike down the concrete steps to the base of Laxapana is steep but totally worth it. The spray from the waterfall is insane. Keep your electronics in a dry bag.
