The long range of Gedaragalapathana was in my to do list. We have hiked to the highest point of the range, locals named as Walgamwewa Kanda(890m)

It was different two days of my travelling beyond adventures and exertion.

Selva Kanda (සෙල්වා කන්ද)-1618m and Rilagala (රිලාගල) are two peaks marked in metric map of Knuckles forest reserve. This is our one day journey to Selva Kanda.

What I found in my camping journeys’ wonderful is digging around the knuckles. It was two times I was in the range and I found a guy who explored knuckles about 11 times.

We came to the village by 7am and it was very difficult to take a Leyland 54 seater bus to Narangamuwa. However our bus uncle was able to get it in front of the Narangamuwa Temple. Unfortunately the school’s roof was damaged on that time due to the heavy wind over there. We were also feel it on the ground too. They was arranged a small meeting with the participating of all the parents and villagers. So they talked about their matters and we told that how we collect these items and the benefit which we expect from these students. After that we delivered the items to the principal. Kind villagers were arranged a small traditional breakfast for all of us. This was really an unexpected treat for us. However we all ate and after that we moved to our Lakegala hike.

After a successful hike to Westminster Abbey (Govinda hela) we returned back to main road (A25) & were waiting for a bus heading to Ampara via Inginiyagala.

Two days trekking started from Bambarella and ended at Meemure. We have passed KMP wadiya, Rahana Ketu Pathana and Wamarapugala during the journey.

Ethbadda (470m) and Nuwaragala (380m) are giants of Nuwaragala forest reserve. Unfinished castle of King Saddathissa was situated on top of Nuwaragala while his elephant kraal was placed at Ethbadda. This is our camping trip to Ethbadda.

This is two days waterfall hunting at Nawalapitiya and Ginigathhena areas.

Kurunegala District is blessed with number of small peaks. This is my experience about Nathagane, Kadiragala, Werapola and Gonagama Kanda.
