Another interesting trek could focus on the temples in the Kandyan Country side north of Gampola. The 15-km trek begins at Geli-Oya, winding through shaded woody areas to the Nigyordawatta rock temple at Telambugoda. Walk to Embekke Devale where the drum hall is said to have been the royal audience hall, later converted and dedicated to God Kataragama. This trek also covers Lanka- tilaka Vihare, built in the 14th century. Different aspects of Sri Lanka can be seen on a walk around kalpitiya Lagoon where the trekker can wade in ponds with an edible, salty sea-grass (a gourmet delicacy in western EEurope), walk on sand bars an through mangroves. A variety of birds can be viewed here, a few being the gray plover, pied kingfisher and red wattled lapwing.

A typical trail for the hard trekker 'could start at the base of Knuckles Range, looming 1,863 meters above Dumbara Valley. Beautiful land scapes await the adventurous, with camping under canvas at night. The trail goes through Wasgamuwa National Park and on to Mahiyangana with an overnight stop at Veddah Village in Dambana.
