Waduwawa was one of my friends home village. Ever since I had heard about the lovely area from him I always wanted to pay a visit. Early morning after finishing a quick hike to Yogamu kanda we started to explore along the Polgahawela – Narammala road which ran through Waduwawa.

Hegasulla (1205m) is a pointed mountain situated in VRR (Victoria- Randenigala-Rantambe) reserve closer to Randenigala reservoir.People say the Lord Buddha has come to place his sacred foot print on top of this mountain but villagers at Theripaha were working at paddy fields on the poya day. Then he has changed his mind and placed the sacred foot print on Sri Pada.

We were able to explore some hidden waterfalls in between Knuckles 5 peaks foot path and Kandasamigala. Our journey started from Gomaraya town and proceed along the road goes to Knuckles View Holiday Bungalow and Knuckles Plantation Bungalow. Then we go to the end of the road and entered to the forest along a water stream. Then we climbed the Kandasamigala and got down to the upper part of the stream which we followed at the beginning.

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.

Kallebokka is a estate in Panwila – kabaragala road next to Madulkele, Central Province, Sri Lanka. It is located at an elevation of 1175 meters above sea level. The 360 View point located at the highest peak in the division/estate is the attractive place where most of the locals visit to view the surrounding beauties. We can see knuckles range with it’s highest peaks and the famous Sembuwatta Lake also can be seen. A ticket of 100/- is issued at the entrance passing the village.The road uphill is tough and all vehicles cannot be driven to the top. Bikes and 4 wheel drivers are recommended. You will never regret after reaching the top.
