Idalgashinna was established as a tea estate in 1984, although the area had seen isolated periods of settlement prior to this. The Idalgashinna Pass is a prominent geological feature in the area; Idalgashinna was regarded as a key entrance to the upland country, with the Portuguese attempting to use the pass in their wars against the Kingdom of Kandy in the 16th century.
