TRAILS AND TREKS

Whilst on the Hunasgiriya trek you will be traversing through ten villages including traditional as well as new settlements, tea estates, paddy fields, pinus plantations and grass lands. The trail lies in an undulating terrain and moves along estate roads, footpaths, through paddy fields and some instances it falls along steep climbs. For an authentic experience you will be staying in simple village houses where toilets are very basic.

Once your naturalist guide brings you back to the hotel, the day is about being lazy and recovering - we encourage you to plan it as you like.

Take a scenic drive to Belihul Oya, passing Nuwara Eliya, which is Sri Lanka's tea growing region. During the drive, relish the endless views of tea carpeted valleys, processing factories belching out fragrant aromas and the bright flash of female "tea pluckers" in their pimento, fuchsia and cerise saris picking their way through the plantations. Enroute visit a tea factory where the process of tea producing and grading will be explained. You will also be able to taste a cup of pure Ceylon tea in the factory. Following which you will find yourself descending to the jungles of Belhul Oya where you will be staying at a basic hotel.
