    ගොඩක් අය මෙි ගැන දන්නවා ඇති ඒත් නොදන්න සහ යන්න කැමැත්තෙන් ඉන්න අයගේ දැනුවත්වීම සදහා මේගැන විස්තරයක් දාන්න හිතුවා. Traveling කරන්න කැමති අයට මේ Thread එක ගොඩක් වැදගත් වෙයි

    Number of Days - One Day Trip

    Transport - From Kalupahana to Ohiya on foot (Possibe Mortor bikes / Jeep 4x4)

    Activities - Hiking & Trekking, Photography, Waterfall hunting

    Weather - Early morning there was a tight mist but in the afternoon it turns to very hot weather & bright sun (Sometimes there have heavy rain)

    Tips, Notes and Special remark -

    The special thing is start the journey as early as possible.

    It is necessary to take care of the weather condition of this area. Because of it is very dangerous to travel this area in rainy season.

    If you travel on foot you should have a good knowledge of your bearing capacity & the self confidence because of this journey is about 25km.

    If you travel in dry season it is better to bring water bottles for drink.
    Travel from Ohiya to Kalupahana is easier than Kalupahana to Ohiya head. Because Kalupahana to Ohiya have many hilly areas.

    Every medicine, food & beverage which need should drink by yourself because of there are no any shop.

    If you start from Ohiya you can bring your breakfast & lunch from Gamine’s stores Ohiya.(If you want you can call & inform him earlier 0574914266)
    We can see tiny cottages of tamil estate people. Don’t forget to chat with them in a moment because of it is great pleasure for them.

    It’s better to bring some sweet for their kids also. They always waiting for us with smiley eyes.

    Travel well without please any harm or disturbance for the estate people and their daily routines.

    Don’t put anything to this beautiful environment like polythene.

    It is better to walk wearing boots because the roughness of this root.
    And also you may take care of the weight of the baggage. Because your speed is depend on it.

    If you reach to “Lanka Ella” & “Bambarakanda” take care about it. Because it’s takes an additional time.

    Leave only your footprint & bring only sweet memories
