Your journey begins with a comfortable pickup from Sigiriya, Dambulla, or nearby areas. Travel through scenic countryside landscapes, passing small villages, paddy fields, and lakes as you make your way to Kanthale.

This experience focuses on slow exploration rather than speed, allowing you to fully enjoy the scenery and silence of this uncrowded destination.
