Prepare for an awe-inspiring camping and trekking adventure as you kick off your journey at Ohiya Station. Your trek begins on the road leading to the legendary Horton Plains. The initial 4 km follow a surfaced road adorned with towering eucalyptus trees and majestic pines, setting the stage for your epic descent.

Picture this: A winding, cobbled road that could be right out of a postcard descends through a lush tea estate. As you gaze westward, towering cliffs form the borders of Horton Plains, creating a breathtaking backdrop. To the south, the mountains give way to the Sabaragamuwa basin, offering mesmerizing views of the Samanala Reservoir, Kalthota mountain range, and even the distant Udawalawa Reservoir.

As you continue, you’ll pass through a charming village within the West Udaweriya estate. The rustic atmosphere, with its tin roofs and weathered walls, adds to the mountain’s ambience, enhancing your experience.

Your night’s rest will be at a scenic viewpoint known as Weli Wanguwa, or “Sand Bend”. Just 50 meters downhill lies a refreshing bathing hole, ideal for a rejuvenating dip. The next day, you’ll descend into a gorge, where the hidden and enigmatic Lanka Ella waterfall awaits. With a height of approximately 100 feet, this waterfall offers an ideal opportunity for beginners to practice abseiling.

Your trek continues to the base of Bambarakanda, Sri Lanka’s tallest waterfall, where your unforgettable journey concludes.
