キャンディからナックルズヒョウトレイルトレック

Overall, I'm glad I did this. To start with the transport, I was not happy with travelling by tuk tuk for a combined 4 hours to get there and back from Kandy. This should have been mentioned. I apparently opted for the most challenging version of this, the hike was incredibly difficult and intense at times but the sightseeing and overall experience was exhilarating. Guide was good although I also think it needs to be mentioned that you're going through thick and dense jungle where the trees and plants are literally in your face - take gloves if you're not keen on touching unfamiliar trees and plants. Take a change of clothes and swimwear, take some snacks, take plenty of water. Take quality hiking shoes and be sure to stretch your legs before starting. Would probably recommend and would do again, hopefully not in a monsoon next time.

We had a wonderful day. The hike was challenging but definitely worth it. Our guide was excellent. Thoroughly recommend!

This was an absolutely incredible hike through The Knuckles Range in Sri Lanka’s spectacular hill country! My guide was wonderful - professional, knowledgeable and open - we moved at an appropriate pace through the range, as he pointed out various flora, fauna and features endemic to this fascinating region. I was visiting the country in the off season, so I was the only traveller hiking, which made this experience even more intimate. This is certainly not for the faint hearted - you definitely need a base level of fitness, come prepared to truly sweat, with all of the proper gear including a durable pair of hiking boots. I was exhausted by the end of it, but it was one of the best experiences of my life, to get to the summit of the range, and see the surroundings, is a moment I’ll remember for the rest of my life. A delicious traditional Sri Lankan lunch is included, and we stopped for a simple breakfast before the hike, and a much needed tea break at the end of it. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough!

We were picked up from our hotel in Kandy in the morning. Afterwards, we went for typical Sri Lankan breakfast together with our guide to strengthen ourselves for the hike. There we were also prepared a packed lunch. After another 40 minutes drive we reached the Knuckels Mountains. The Hike is fantastic. Every few meters in altitude, the landscape changes. At the top of Lepard Mountain there are incredible views, but the climb is a bit challenging, so good physical fitness is an important requirement. Just a great and recommended experience.

Nestled within the picturesque Knuckles mountain range of Sri Lanka, Dumbara Falls is a hidden gem that showcases the region's stunning natural beauty. You will come across this waterfall while hiking Duwili Falls. This Dumbara Falls Hike is prepared for people who are unable to walk to Dusty Falls.As hikers make their way through the verdant trails, they are enveloped by the soothing sounds of nature and the refreshing mist created by the waterfall.with its impressive cascade plunging into a crystal-clear pool, is a sight to behold and offers a serene spot for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Loved the experience - would recommend to family and friends. So far it has been the highlight of our trip. The guide took time to explain flora and fauna to us including some historical facts. We stopped for a lovely local breakfast on the way and enjoyed a delicious meal at the top of the second knuckle. Make sure to bring good walking shoes as going downhill on trainers could be strenuous. Thank you to our fantastic guide, you made our time in Sri Lanka very special. All in all, a memory we will never forget. Shoutout to the driver, he was great.

It would have been great if it hadn't rained. The adventure route to the waterfall basin was fun. It might be a little difficult for beginners.

AMAZING! Wonderful day trip with a guide with great knowledge of local plants. I found this tour last minute and it has been a highlight of my Sri Lanka trip 100% recommend Beautiful views without heaps of people around, even finished with a fresh waterfall shower

Tough hike and in parts you had to use both hands and feet, but you were well rewarded when you reached the upper waterfall and got to take a cooling dip. My guide Manju was great and could explain everything we saw and was happy to tell me and make sure I got up and down safely. Even the train ride from and to Kandy was very beautiful.

We had a crappy weather when we did the tour on 1st Jan 2024 - it was raining the whole time in the jungle. However, we still had a fantastic time being out in the nature and hiking through the trail. The knuckles reserve is very clean, and well conserved. We saw lots of flowing waterfalls and walked through some of them as part of the trail. Our guide, Manju, was AMAZING! He put our safety as the no.1 priority and always observed where we put the feet on in case it’s slippery rocks.
