From your base in Kitugala, experiment with a number of exciting pursuits in the wonderful surrounding countryside.

Famous as the location for the film 'Bridge over the River Kwai', the River Kelani, which flows through the town of Kitugala, is fast becoming as famous for white water rafting and kayaking.

You will be staying in one of the most fertile and beautiful areas of Sri Lanka. The stunning scenery of the various tea and rubber plantations provide a wonderful setting for hiking and there are plenty of caving possibilities.

Mountain Biking is one of the best ways to explore the hill country and its endless jaw dropping views. Chose between day excursion and longer expeditions. Again, the bikes are excellent quality and are scrupulously maintained and serviced. The trails are lead by experienced bikers who have researched and developed the routes over time. Select your own degree of difficulty and intensity to suit the needs of your party. It is possible to take in many of the sites of the hill country by bike. You could ride between the towns of Bandarawela, Badulla, Haputale and Ella - the leaders also have expert knowledge of the available routes to ensure you spend as little time as possible on the main roads. Contact us for a quote.

You can include this experience as part of an Experience Travel Group holiday designed exclusively with you.
