I discussed this with my friend at Nuwaraeliya and we planned to visit this on June 2017. As he got information we used Hewenakumbura road near to Keppettipola junction at Badulla-Nuwaraeliya road. Then we came near to the mountain by asking the information from the villagers. Then at a point we met the useful person who has been there a month ago. He showed us the footpath where it started. Hence we parked our bicycles and started the hike.

Single Tree is about 2105m and Kikiliyamana about 2143m and they are the border of Nuwaraeliya from Western side. Reaching to the both peaks is very easy and no need of special permission. The Single Tree road is situated near to the Race Course (6.961011, 80.767516). We can travel up to the Swarnagiri maha viharaya Temple via the narrow road by any vehicle but after that we have to walk or else go by a 4WD vehicle.

A little drizzle started, and the leaves were dripping with water and they made our clothes wet as we brushed past them. However, we decided to walk through it since we were little too lazy to open our heavy backpacks that early of the walk. At the end of the paved road we turned back, and we saw a golden painted dagoba among the neighboring mountain.

Rathna Ella is a beautiful waterfall located at Haslaka. The Waterfall can be reached easily from Hasalaka. Hasalaka to Rathna Ella Wasama and from there 2-3 Km walk to reach the falls. This is the popular route to the falls. But, we tried a different route which we started from Popitiya (18 Bends Viewing Area).
