What you can expect

Day 01

You will be picked up from Colombo and Negombo or Airport and driven to Digana in Kandy.
Spend overnight in Polwaththa Eco Lodge on Half Board Basis.

Day 02

After breakfast, you will start a village walk and waterfall swim. This is the most popular trek especially among children with the waterfall-swim as the highlight. The walk begins from our Lodge and is through quaint villages with their Kandyan Forest Gardens where the villagers go about their daily chores at their own easy pace. You will be invited to visit their houses and see, for example, how they make treacle and jaggery (syrup and sugar blocks made from the sap/nectar of a palm tree). You will be given a “Botany lesson” by our Guide of the various trees you will see on the way, such as cloves, pepper, nutmeg, coffee, cocoa, jack, bread-fruit, arecanut, mangosteen, mango, passion-fruit, rambuttan, banana, papaya etc. You will also see rice-fields, and time permitting, a glimpse of our nearby reforestation programme – life in harmony with nature and a breath-taking view of the lake surrounded by majestic mountains.
Spend overnight in Polwaththa Eco Lodge on Full Board Basis.

Day 03

After breakfast you will enjoy another memorable day with your local guide. Within a few hours you experience a great deal of village life. You take a 2-km path to the local school which most village children take. Distribute pens, exercise books etc. to the school children and participate with the children and their teacher in a short lesson followed by personal interaction with the children. A 20-minute ride in the local bus (which is not crowded) will take you close to the jungle-path leading to the water-fall hidden in the jungle - you will feel like Tarzan & Jane! If you are a competent swimmer, swimming in the natural pool will be loads of fun. If you wish to have your lunch at the water-fall, please inform your guide before leaving the Lodge. Return by tuk-tuk or by safari jeep.
Spend overnight in Polwaththa Eco Lodge on Full Board Basis.

Day 04

After breakfast, you will be driven to Anamaduwa. On arrival, you will check in to the Mudhouse. All locally guided excursions and activities for the duration of the stay are provided free of charge. These may change depending on the season or other local factors but a range will always be offered, including: picnic trips, temple visits, bird watching walks, nature trails, lake kayaking, local historical sights and cooking lessons.
Spend overnight in the Mudhouse on Full Board Basis.

Day 05

After breakfast, you will be able to enjoy one of the activities as per your choice. It will be another interesting day for you with some unique experiences.
Spend overnight in the Mudhouse on Full Board Basis.

Day 06

As all good things come to an end, you will be safely driven to the airport for your flight back home having sweet memories of the tour.
