Trekking in Sri Lanka’s rainforests, particularly in Sinharaja Forest Reserve and Makandawa Forest Reserve in Kitulgala, offers a captivating glimpse into the island’s rich biodiversity and lush landscapes. Sinharaja, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is renowned for its endemic species, with towering trees, vibrant orchids, and unique wildlife like the Sri Lankan blue magpie and purple-faced leaf monkey. In Makandawa, the trek begins near the Kelani River, weaving through dense rainforest where you can spot colorful butterflies, rare birds, and enjoy river activities like white-water rafting. Both treks provide an unforgettable immersion in pristine nature, showcasing Sri Lanka’s unique ecosystems and serene beauty.
