Gombaniya (1906m) is the highest peak of Knuckles mountain range. This is our one day hike to false popular summit and true peak of Gombaniya.

Kamburagala (400m) is a funny shape rock situated in Maduru Oya NP. Kandegama / Dhanigala is situated closer to Maduru Oya reservoir became a popular travel destination in last two years.

නකල්ස් යනු රක්ෂිත වනාන්තරයකි. මධ්‍යම කඳුකරයේ උතුරු සීමාව තුළ පිහිටි මෙම රක්ෂිතය හෙක්ටයාර් 22000 කින් පමණ සමන් විතය. එහි සාම්ප්‍රදායික කුඹුරු ගොවිතැන ජීවනෝපාය කර ගත් ගම්මාන 50කට අධික ගණනක් පවතින අතර ස්වාභාවික නිර්මාණ රාශියක් පිරී රමණීය භූමි ප්‍රදේශයකි.

දුමෙන් බර මිටියාවත නොහොත් දුම්බර මිටියාවත ලෙස නම් කළ හෙක්ටයාර 22,000 ක පමණ භූමි වපසරියකින් යුත් නකල්ස් වනපෙත ලංකාවේ අතිශය වැදගත් රක්ෂිත වන පියසකි.

It was a colorful day that we all were gathered  to have a new experience. Like wise my 1st report walimba hela this time also i was counting days since nearly one year for this memorable hike.

Popularly known Saptha Kanya / Seven Virgins Hills is also called Uda Lakshapana Gala. Few years ago it’s was a hard hike now seems to be a less strenuous journey due to clear foot path.

After visiting at Karagahathenna Mini World’s end, I was dreaming to camp there to enjoy the sunrise. This is our story about camping at Karagahathenna Mini World’s end and trekking to another beauty called Sera Ella.

In 2012 while we were exploring Rajagala we noted a prominent hill which locals called Balagala / Walimbe and after few map reading sessions we got to know that this was called Walimbe hela / Friars hood (because of the look of a hat of a priest). I was determined to conquer it and in 2014 I actually attempted it while I was turned back by a false 119 complain.

Year 2018 is not for instantaneous trips but to cover up long awaited dream hikes. Mandaram Nuwara to Piduruthalagala was once a dream since 2009 and Malaka’s report played a major part in it.

Same as last year we arrange donate school items for rural school. This time we selected Batuhena Primary School in Elehera Bakamuna area for our donation. 81 children & 6 teachers in that school.

It was 9 Years back when I first came to know about this magical location but somehow I couldn’t pull it off due to various reasons. Not like 9 years back now I was fully equipped with lot of information which aided me to pull this off! I think I dont need to explain the route details since its documented well in previous reports and almost every one is aware about the trail.

After two years of planning and reading trip reports in Lakdasun and posts on Elakiri about Doowili ella, finally we were able to gather 4 people (well, in the beginning there were 6 and on the day sprit was remain), who were extremely needed to do this hike.
