What to expect

Itinerary

The Knuckles Mountain Range lies in central Sri Lanka, in the Districts of Matale and Kandy. The range takes its name from a series of recumbent folds and peaks in the west of the massif which resemble the knuckles of clenched fist when viewed from certain locations in the Kandy District.

The higher montane area is often robed in thick layers of cloud. Knuckles Conservation Forest was included in UNESCO natural world heritage list in 2010 as part of Central Highlands of Sri Lanka.

Knuckles mountain range features 34 peaks ranging in height between 1900 meters and 900 meters. Five high mountain peaks of the range having formed in the shape of a clenched fist, the British in Ceylon named the mountain range Knuckles.

Niro is a fantastic guide. We did the Adventure Trek to one of the peaks which is 1980m. He pointed out plants and animals along the way and made sure the pace was right. I highly recommend him as a guide in the Knuckles Mountains
