What to Expect

    Horton plains or Mahaeliya Tenna in Sinhalese is the great plains of the central hills of Sri Lanka, located approximately 30 km from the town of Nuwara Eliya better known for its cooler climate. The starting point is marked by a gate and a little pond and further up you’ll end up in a resting station before you start the trek, 10 km of it. A little climb on a cobblestone path will take you to the fork and taking the left here would be less strenuous on the way back, jumping or climbing short hops down from boulder to boulder on this route while listening to the birds and wind through the trees is magical, once you reach the worlds end you’ll experience the cloud forest & be ready for the occasional drench as well. You’ll need a bit of patience to wait for the clouds to part and show you the great vista of the valley spreading for miles below. On a clear day, you might even spot the ocean across the southern part of Sri Lanka.
