点评:The Kirigalpoththa Trail is a rousing journey through Sri Lanka's stunning cloud forest. Starting at the same point as the popular World's End trail in Horton Plains National Park, the Kirigalpoththa Trail diverges to the right, offering an adventure for those seeking a more challenging and less-traveled path.
Distance: 14 km round trip
Elevation Gain: 250 meters
Terrain: The trail passes through plains, bog, cloud forest, and rock, providing a diverse and captivating landscape.
The path is not as well marked or visible as some of the other trails in the area.
Be prepared with food, water, and first aid. However, there are plenty of very clean water sources along the way where you can refill your bottles.
Please note that single-use plastics are not permitted on the trail.
Ensure you arrive at the starting point no later than 10:30 AM; otherwise, you may not be permitted to enter the trail.
The trail offers sightings of Sambar deer, with the possibility of spotting Wildcats, Leopards, Boars, and a variety of birds.
Due to the cloud forest, a clear view from the top is rare, but the joy of this hike is the adventure of getting there.
The trail passes across wetlands, grassland, and forest, providing a rich tapestry of biodiversity.
