Descrizione
Explore Sinharaja Rainforest on a guided trek. Enjoy a scenic drive, walk along marked trails, spot wildlife from a safe distance, and relax at a natural waterfall before heading back.
Begin your day with a comfortable pickup from Mirissa, Weligama, Ahangama, Galle, or Hikkaduwa. As you travel inland, enjoy a scenic drive through rural landscapes, lush hills, and peaceful villages before reaching the edge of the Sinharaja Rainforest — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Sri Lanka’s most biodiverse forest.
Upon arrival, meet your licensed nature guide, who will explain the trail, safety procedures, and responsible wildlife-watching guidelines. Your trek follows officially marked paths designed to minimize environmental impact while offering excellent viewing opportunities.
As you explore the forest, keep an eye out for endemic bird species such as the Sri Lanka Blue Magpie and mixed-species flocks. Depending on the season, you may observe purple-faced langur monkeys, giant squirrels, reptiles, amphibians, and a wide variety of plants, orchids, and rainforest trees — all from a respectful, non-intrusive distance.
Midway through the trek, arrive at a natural forest waterfall fed by crystal-clear rainforest streams. Here, you’ll have time to relax, enjoy the surroundings, and take a refreshing dip in safe, designated areas. Your guide will ensure that all activities adhere to conservation standards.
To ensure comfort, leech socks are provided, and your guide will help you navigate humid and uneven terrain safely. After completing the trek, begin your return journey, taking in the beautiful scenery you passed on your way.
Enjoy complimentary soft drinks during the trip. Finally, relax as your driver takes you back to your hotel in comfort.
