Tour Overview
Step into the heart of Sri Lanka’s misty hill country, where emerald tea plantations, forest trails and cultural treasures sit within a few hours of each other. This seven-day Tea and Trekking Adventure is built for travellers who would rather walk a ridge than sit in a vehicle.
From Kandy’s sacred temples to the untouched Knuckles Mountain Range, the World’s End escarpment at Horton Plains, Lipton’s Seat above Haputale, the train to Ella and finally a midnight pilgrimage up Adam’s Peak for sunrise – this is the island at its most spectacular and most active.
A reasonable level of fitness is needed, but every hike has an easier alternative and your guide will match the day to your group.
Want a different length, a different hotel category or an extra beach day? This itinerary is fully flexible – we can stretch or shorten the 7 days, swap destinations and arrange your accommodation at any star rating.
