Descrizione
Hike the Pekoe Trail's Stage 2 from Galaha to Loolkandura. Explore tea estates, local villages, and enjoy panoramic views of the Hantana and Knuckles regions.
Begin your hike in Galaha and head toward the Deltota Estate through estate roads and village paths. Pass local sights like Galaha Sri Muththumariamman Kovil and Deltota Group Hindu Kovil. Take a break in Deltota, a lively hill country town, and grab some snacks.
From Deltota, climb steeply uphill into pine forest sections. If the ground is wet, leech socks are recommended. The path eventually joins an old estate road and ascends toward the Loolecondera Tea Estate.
Highlights include James Taylor’s Cottage/Cottage areas — the birthplace of Sri Lanka’s tea industry — and Taylor’s Seat viewpoints with sweeping views of the highlands. A final descent through lush tea plantations brings you to Loolkandura, near a Hindu shrine and pedestrian bridge that marks the end.
