    The trekkers’ favorite approach to Knuckles ranges begins on A26 main motor way running east of Kandy to Hunnsgiriya. At Hunnasiriya, B grade road leads to the Corbett’s Gap which opens up magnificent views of Knuckles range. From Corbett’s Gap the road that leads to the village of Meemure too can be travelled by a vehicle having good ground clearance.

    The trekkers also have options in two more entry roads: from Matale via Rattota and Riversten; from Wattegama via Panwila.
    The rugged peaks of the Knuckles (Dumbara Hills) named by the British for their resemblance to the knuckles of a clenched fist. The steeply shelving mountain terrain reaches 1863 m the summit of the main Knuckles peak itself (the sixth highest in Sri Lanka) and included stand of rare dwarf cloud forest.

      Our day spent trekking through the Knuckles Mountain Range was truly a remarkable experience, filled with breathtaking views and a refreshing sense of adventure. The transportation to Gomara was smooth and comfortable, setting a perfect tone for the day’s exploration. While the trails were occasionally challenging, the stunning landscapes and vibrant flora made every step worthwhile, though we did wish for a bit more information about the local wildlife along the way.

      The breathtaking views from the summit of the Knuckles Mountain Range left us in awe, reminding us why we cherish family adventures. Although the trail had some rocky patches that slowed us down, the stunning scenery made it easy to overlook any minor setbacks.
