Roaming at Bambarakiri and Sera Falls

This beautiful Sera Ella fall, the subject of several poems, is situated in the Dumbara Jungle that is split into two sections, both 10m in height. Kitul Canal, from the Kaudagammana Mountain, and the Hunumadala River, from the Gonamada and Deyuthu Gammmaduwa mountains, flow in unison to form the Puwakpitiya River. This later joins Thelegam River, at which point the fall is created as the water tumbles down a protruding rock face, visible from Dumbara Jungle

Bena Samanala Hike (2010m)

සමනල රක්ෂිතයේ කඳු අතරින් ප්‍රධානම කන්ද වන සිරිපා කන්ද එහි සුවිශේෂී පිහිටීම නිසාම දිවයිනේ සතර දිග් භාගයටම දැකිය හැකිය. නමුත් වනපෙතේ විශාලතම කන්ද වනුයේ බෑන සමනල ගල ය. එය රක්ෂිතයේ උසින් තෙවෙනි ස්ථානය ගන්නේ මීටර් 2010ක් ලෙසිනි. බොහෝ දුර්ග මාර්ග සේම කළුගඟේ ප්‍රධානම ජල පෝෂකයක් වී ගලා යන දියවර උපත පටන් ගන්න බෑන සමනල කන්දේ අදටත් කිසිවෙකු නොගිය ප්‍රපාතය තුළ යම් අබිරහසක් ඇති බව බොහෝ කාලයක් පටන් විවිධ පුද්ගලයින් අදහස් දක්වා ඇත.

Day visit to Wewelthalawa Highland

Wewelthalawa is a beautiful plateau located near Kithulgala and Yatiyantota. It is also near to the famous Olu Fall and Wawulagala on Sea forth – Amanawela road. We should take the prior permission to visit Wewelthalawa as it is a privately owned estate.

The 60 meter Miyunu Ella waterfall is one of the two large waterfalls lying in the Kukulugala Forest (KF) is situated within the Western boundary of the Ratnapura district, Sabaragamuwa Province; and is located 15 km away from Bulathsinhala town. This forest ecosystem, which covers an area of 6000 acres within the Ayagama secretariat division, can be categorized as a low land evergreen rain forest.

Nayabedda/ St. Catherines 2 Mountain Hike (1943m)

Nayabedda Mountain is on our list for a long time as we have seen it on our Wangedigala hike. This mountain is marked in Metric Map as “St. Catherines 2” and the 1 should be St. Catherine’s Seat which is also marked in the Metric Map without the word “Seat”. When I explore this location in Metric map I realized the name given in here and the name we currently use. Actually we are using the estate name for this mountain. But the real name is “St. Catherines 2”.

Kukulagala/ Diyatalawa Hike (1532m)

Kukulagala mountain is situated near Rikillagaskada and it also is known as Diyatalawa mountain in Metric Map. We have noticed this mountain on the way to our Loolkandura. After a few months,  we planned this hike and it was much easy for us since one of our friend is living at Nuwaraeliya.

Challenging hike to Beragala rock(1385m) – Ilumbekanda

In 2017 we hiked Handapan ella plains and we noted that there is a range of peaks on the other side of the plain. Later we got to know that this was called Beragala(the highest point of Handapan ella reserve) and locals from Ilumbekanda climbed it regularly.

Dream hike of the year-Sudugala (1618m) /සුදුගල

Knuckles Sudugala (1618m) is mountain with two peaks and surrounded by other mountains in Knuckles range. This is a dream hike of Knuckles lovers. We were able to hike one of the peaks of Sudugala as a part of three days trip.

Kirigalpotta Hike – 2389m

වර්ෂ 1988 මාර්තු මස 16 වැනි දින ජාතික උද්‍යානයක් ලෙස නම්කරන ලද හෝර්ටන් තැන්න යනු මීටර 2100ක පමණ උසින් පිහිටි විශාල පතනකි. එම පතනේ ලංකාවේ දෙවැනි හා තෙවැනි  උසම කඳු පිහිටා තිබෙන තෝතැන්නකි. විශාල ජෛව විවිධත්වයකට හා අපූර්වතම කාලගුණික හා වනාන්තර රටාවකට උරුමකම් කියන හෝර්ටන් තැන්න 2010දී ලෝක උරුමයක් බවට පත්විය. අද අපගේ ක‍්‍රියාදාමය වනුයේ මීටර 2389ක් උසැති ලංකාවේ දෙවැනි උසම කන්ද වන කිරිගල්පොත්ත තරණය කිරීමයි. එලෙසම අවසර සහිතව එම භූමියේ කඳවුරු ලා රැුය පහන් කිරීම හා එහි වෙසෙන ප‍්‍රබලම මාංශ භක්ෂක සත්වයා වන දිවියන් පිළිබඳව සෙවීමයි.

Office trip to Wawulagala – 745m

Wawulagala is a very beautiful and unique shaped mountain located near the famous Olu waterfall. When I go to Olu falls in 2013 I remember I have noticed this massive rock but at that time I didn’t have much interest in mountaineering as I was addicted to waterfall hunting.

Hike to Chariot Path of King Ravana

රාවණා ගැන කථා ඕන තරම් අපි අහලා තියෙනවා. ඒ අතරින් වඩා විශේෂ තැනක් ගැන තමයි මේ කියන්නේ. මෙතනට කියන්නේ Chariot path(චැරියට් පාත්) කියලා. හැබැයි පුස්සැල්ලෑව පැත්තේ අය නම් කියන්නේ ‘පිට්ටනි“ කියලා. මේ සුන්දර ස්ථානය තියෙන්නේ පිදුරුතලාගල කඳුපන්තියේ රම්බොඩ පැත්තේ. පුස්සැල්ලෑවට ගිහිං පුස්ස්ල්ලාව පෙට්රසි වත්තෙන් මෙතනට යන්න පුළුවන්.
