Rambukkana to Kadugannawa stretch is the most beautiful section of Colombo-Kandy railway line. There is a valuable history goes back to Colonial era with this railway line.

After my last two visits to Thanamalwila and Hambanthota I decided to head further south towards Ambalantota.

We all gathered at Peradeniya and started our trip with 5 Motor bikes. We had our breakfast at Madawala and reached Panwila around 8:30 am. After passing the Panwila Filling station there is a road to left with the name boards which is the road to go to Hunnasgiriya mountain range.

Alagalla is a popular peak among travellers due to it’s easily accessibility. This is my second visit to Alagalla.

In 2013 I did a grand tour around Thissamaharama and Kataragama and this year I thought of extending it further away towards Hambanthota. In this report I have focused on few places I haven’t visited already. As usual I left early morning and reached Bandagiriya to start off my day.

Last year (2015) our team did a hike to Alagalla with a overnight camping. We were able to hike only a part of the Alagalla mountain range. So we decided to hike this mountain another day with a proper plan. Some days later I saw a video on youtube on ‘Alagalla’ which is a documentary done by ITN TV Channel. This gave me some idea about entire Alagalla range.

After my last visit to Wellawaya I thought of proceeding further south and my wife did join me on this venture. As usual we took of early from Monaragala and reached Thanamalvila. There were few places on the way to Thanamalvila which we thought of visiting while returning back.

We started form my home around 8 am. Reached Wattegama around ½ Hr time. Up to Alkaduwa Junction you have well carpet road from there not carpeted but no problem for drive.

Almost one year back I did reach Nagrak to visit Galagama falls and while we were at Nagrak I did note a peak protruding out parallel to Gommolli range and Havagala range. This seemed to be an ideal place to leisurely hang around and this December while we were itching without doing any hikes we thought of giving it a try to stretch out our muscles. As usual early as possible we left and reached Belihul oya at around 7am.

We started the journey at 9 am and reached Medamahanuwara by 11 am. We had Breakfast at Medamahanuwara and bought some Snacks. Road to wewathenna starts after passing few meters from medamahanuwara town. There is a big name board showing the information of Bomure monument to the right side of the road.
