One of the most scenic regions of the country, these verdant rolling hills, soaring peaks, dramatic ravines and lush green tea estates are home to the attractive villages of Nuwara Eliya and Hatton. With brick and stone-built houses, rose gardens and beautiful lawns, the villages in many ways have still retained their old colonial style. The region is also home to Adam’s Peak, one of Sri Lanka’s most significant landmarks. The holy mountain, at more than 2,130 metres, offers spectacular trekking and walking opportunities.
