Climbing Manigala is a rewarding experience. It lets you enjoy the true beauty of the Knuckles Range. The beautiful “Thelgamu Oya” (river) and the paddy fields with the mountains in the backdrop at the traditional villages will simply take your breath away. The panoramic view of the Knuckles Range from the top of Manigala; the unique flat area on the top of the mountain which resembles the spine of an elephant and the rich diversity of vegetation - are some of the other highlights of the Knuckles trek. At the conclusion of the exhilarating trek to Knuckles, we retire into a small beautiful guest house to relax and enjoy our lunch prior to departure.
