★ Trip to Bandarawela

Date : 06/08/2011 & 07/08/2011


We started the journey from Delgoda around 5.00AM and we used Kaduwela  – Rathnapura route and from Rathnapura we headed towards Haputale. While we were passing Belihuloya we decided to have our breakfast near beautiful scenery of mountains. After that we stopped at River Graden Hotel to drink some tea. That was a nice place and management of the hotel was allowed us to go down to see the Belihuloya River.

We arrived at Haputale around 11.30AM and our first destination was Lipton Seat. This marvelous viewing point is located 17 km away from Haputhale along Dambetenna Road. Due to the construction of road we have to walk 1.3 Km to the place.  It was a quite wonderful walk thorough the tea estate. At the time we arrived we could not see anything due to the low cloud and mist. But after sometimes we were able to see the view.

Lipton's Seat

This is one of the highest points of the tea estate which was commenced by Sir Thomas Lipton. From the top of the hill, the beautiful tea estate can be seen and very important as a view point. When there is a clear weather five districts near Badulla could be seen from here. 

• Central Province
• Sabaragamuwa Province
• Southern Province
• Eastern Province
• Uva Province

This marvelous viewing point is located 17 km away from Haputhale along Dambetenna Road.

We have arrived to the Bungalow in Bandarawela via Nayabedda. It's a nice place, more than we expected. ... We enjoyed the hospitality of the caretaker and get relaxed. 

On the second day morning we went to see the Ravana Ella and also we saw Alla Gap.

Ravana Ella 

Ravana waterfall is creation of a Kiridi oya , which is located in between the 12th and 13th mile post on Ella Wellawaya road

After that we went back to the bungalow and checked out and return home via the same route.
