Katusukonda is a part of the Hanthana Mountain Range in Sri Lanka, which is a popular destination for adventure lovers. Katusukonda means “lizard’s back” in Sinhala, because it looks like a narrow and rocky ridge. Walking on it can be very risky and thrilling, as you can see the steep drops on both sides. 

Our team is ready to take you on a challenging trek accompanied by stunning views on all sides. Enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding hills, valleys, and forests from the top of Katusukonda. 

Katusukonda hiking can be a rewarding experience for those who seek adventure and challenge. It can also be a great opportunity to witness the natural beauty and diversity of Sri Lanka. The edge of the ridge is only about one meter wide. You have to be very careful and confident, as any mistake can lead to unpleasant results. We also advise you to carry enough water, food, and a flashlight as we venture into wild territories.

Join us on this adventure. We can arrange transport to the location from anywhere in Sri Lanka. All we need is your participation.

Dolukanda Hiking and Abseiling Experience

Visiting the Knuckles Mountain Range is never disappointing. With its range of 34 mountains, there are unlimited opportunities for adventure for those brave enough to seek it. Some paths will challenge you physically while others will challenge the limits of your mind and open it to a new and incredible experience of nature. 

The mountains range from 900 to 2,000 metres in height and you can witness a large variety of animals, trees and plants living in this rich environment which thrives under the protection of environmental laws.  

Today let us embark on a journey to a place in Knuckles which has both natural and historical value. Manigala mountain has a long history associated with the tale of Ravana and is also called Ravanathenna, because it is believed that Ravana landed his legendary vehicle the Dandu Monara on its peak. The name Manigala presumably comes from the word Mani meaning Time in Tamil as Indian Tamils who migrated here as tea workers and for other various jobs, used Manigala to determine the time by measuring the amount of sunlight falling on its face. 

There is a large open space at the peak of Manigala which is affected by high speed and sometimes dangerous winds. The trees at the peak tend to be stunted in their growth because of this. The lack of trees causes the peak to get overheated therefore we recommend making this journey as early in the morning as possible. From the peak you will be greeted by stunning views of the forests and waterfalls, cultivated fields and the entire Knuckles Mountain range which has made it a very popular destination for hiking, camping and photography enthusiasts.

The journey is not difficult and can be attempted with moderate fitness. However if the hike to the ridge which is 1,104 metres high is too daunting, check out some of our other options to explore Knuckles with our Knuckles 5 peaks package and our 2 day camping adventure at Knuckles. 

Come experience the beauty of Manigala with us and make memories to last forever.

Not called Sri Lanka’s most dangerous mountain for nothing. This climb is far removed from the usual climbing attractions at Knuckles.

The literal translation of Lakegala is the Rock of Lanka. 

Lakegala has a unique triangular shape, which is its most prominent feature and is visible from miles away. Most importantly, unlike its neighboring mountains, Lakegala is the only mountain in the Knuckles mountain range that requires rock climbing techniques to reach the summit. Which means that it is the most challenging climb to attempt in Sri Lanka. Because of its challenging terrain and steep inclines, Lakegala attracts adventure enthusiasts and experienced climbers worldwide.

Let’s take a walk through the forest and uncover hidden treasures

Spend one day with us and we’ll give you an experience to take with you for all the rest of your days. 

Come to Kalupahana, the home of Bambarakanda Falls and Lanka Falls which are two of the most beautiful waterfalls in Sri Lanka.

Kalupahana is the nearest town to these two waterfalls. (5km away)

The path to these two waterfalls in itself gives hikers an awe-inspiring experience because it has mesmerising sceneries and has a gentle breeze blowing over it. The path makes its way across a dramatic landscape with massive mountain ranges and Pine Forests. Be careful as you navigate through the Pine forests as the Pine leaves tend to make the floor slippery at times. After just a few miles of trekking, you will reach the base of the Bambarakanda Falls. Here, hikers can experience the continuous spray of icy water with the cold breeze and breathtaking view. Especially during the dry season, the rocks of this waterfall form a perfect friendly pool where hikers can enjoy a bath at the edge of the highest waterfall in Sri Lanka.

After trekking through the Pine trees, the hikers will see the Lanka Falls. The Lanka Fall got its name from the shape of the base pool of the fall as it resembles the tear-drop shape of Sri Lanka. Hikers will be visually surrounded by rocks and the beauty of the Lanka Falls. We caution hikers to not be tempted by the water in the pool at the base of Lanka Falls as it is too dangerous for swimming due to the depth of the water.

Wangedigala and Wangedigala mountain are located near a beautiful village called Kalupahana. 

Some interesting facts about the name Wangedigala. It was given this name due to the pestle shaped peak of the mountain. The sinhalese word for pestle is wangedi. And the word wangedi-gala is a direct translation of the phrase “Pestle Rock”. 

Wangedigala and Wangedigala Mountain are two different peaks which most locals as well as Tourist hikers consider as the same peak. Wangedigala is a rock platform on the left side of the mountain that resembles a large stage and offers an exquisite view of the surrounding area.

Hiking through the Pine forest of Wangedigala, hikers can witness the beauty of mountain ranges around them and breathtaking sceneries of Bambarakanda Falls and Lanka Falls which fall from the mountain neighbouring Wangedigala. Hikers will have a thrilling experience of crossing Bambarakanda Falls via a rope bridge.

We will be trekking through many stretches of forest which grow Pine trees. The needles (leaves) of the Pine tree are very slippery to tread on so be cautious when hiking these paths.
