Hiking Tours - Option I - Winter

The central highland of Sri Lanka is one of the most beautiful mountainous areas of the world. That contains precariously steep hillsides, plunging waterfalls, dense forests, paddy fields, spice gardens, and tea plantations. Thus central highlands of Sri Lanka become a paradise for avid hikers.

This tour programme is solely designed for advanced hikers who are willing to grab some adventurous experience. You'll be able to explore the mountain peaks where the tragic plane crash happened in 1974, killing hundreds of passengers. That area is almost untouched by tourists. We will offer you plenty of opportunities to relax and unwind and taste the local cuisine on some nights at the camping. 

Let’s enjoy the best exciting hiking holiday of your life!
