Galaha and Delthota are two beautiful entities at Kandy district but hidden from routine travelling routes. These are some travel destinations around Galaha and Delthota on my way to Rikillagaskada.

Horana is a beautiful city surrounded by greenish paddy fields and small hills. There are different places in and around Horana including archeological sites, temples and lakes. This is my overlook of some places at Horana.

Rumassala / Rumassala is a major tourist attraction in down south. This is kind of a superficial touch on this beautiful and historical place.

Another off season Sri pada hike along the easiest route but through the mist.

Bambugala is a small tower type peak situated near to the Narangamuwa Lakegala/ Komalewegala. The hike should start from Narangamuwa and offline GPS is needed to find the exact locations without following any wrong directions. It is not far from the Narangamuwa but we can follow the usual pathway which is from Narangamuwa village to Komalewegala via Uyangomuwa.

Bypassing Uyangomuwa we can get entered to the left side forest where the Rehessa located. And after that, we can directly go to the Bambugala plains as we can see the Bambugala at Rehessa. Bambugala plain has a small slope and we can follow the ridge of the plain up to the Bambugala peak. The tallest peak looks like a Cylinder which is called in Sinhala as “Bambu”

Be more careful once you step into the summit of the peak as it has a very limited area to climb. It is not suitable to climb this during a heavy windy season as if something got wrong you will have died.

Kabaragala (1506m) is the highest point of Dolosbage range and one of a popular camp sites among travellers. This is my story on Kabaragala camping.

This hike was planned by Nirosh as he has noticed this place according to a blog post. After I joined with him at Bandaragama we headed to the location and parked our bike near a village house and walked along the footpath. There was a small path but it is not much clear. However, within a few minutes, we were able to reach the cave complex, and the environment and the caves are really attractive and beautiful. Below is the blog post that Nirosh kept and we followed.

After the Covid-19 pandemic situation, we had our first journey to Sripada on Erathna route especially to check about the status of the name boards and dust bins which we were placed in December 2019 during our Cleaning project. We informed to PHI Kuruwita and had this hike without informing anyone as the offseason hike is not yet started at that time.

We were lucky to invited from Manusath Derana to lead the cleaning project on Kuruwita – Erathna route on this massive project. As we planned we came to the Galwangediya Ambalama and get down via Erathna route for cleaning and collecting garbage. It took all over the day and Derana has provided garbage bags and some stuff for the participants and it was much easier for everyone too.

Kurulugala-Deniyaya is an uncommon travel destination situated at the edge of Sinharaja Rain Forest.

Samangala is a new entrance to Sinharaja rain forest and Rain Forest Eco lodge hotel is situated at boundary of Sinharaja rain forest. This is the summary of my visit to Rain forest Eco lodge hotel and nearby some waterfalls.

This is to show the rare beauty of Peak Wilderness forest reserve under heavy storm an rainy season. All of these photos and videos were taken during the off season by few of members at සමනල කන්ද රසික එකමුතුව. They were able to experienced this amazing views during their journey which was had unexpected situation like this. You can see the beauty of Siripa trails from this report asyou don’t need to get this physical experience as it is rare and dangerous.
