Overview
Horton Plains National Park, located in Sri Lanka’s central highlands, offers one of the island’s most scenic and peaceful nature trails. Cool air, cloud forests, and grasslands create a unique and unforgettable hiking experience.
Start your journey early and walk the circular trail through open plains and forest paths. Along the way, you may spot sambar deer, colorful birds, and even rare species found only in this region.
The highlight of the trail is World’s End—a dramatic cliff that drops nearly 900 meters. On a clear morning, you’ll see all the way to the southern coast. Don’t miss Baker’s Falls, a beautiful waterfall surrounded by lush greenery.
Horton Plains blends nature, wildlife, and fresh air in a way that few other places do.
