    We were lucky enough to spend two nights here (and as the only guests!) and we loved every minute of it. Shermal and his small team have done an amazing job to set this up and they personally look after you really well. Views are amazing, food...

This mountain range lies in Kandy and Matale Districts of Central Sri Lanka. It is separated from the main Central highlands by the deeply incised valley of the Mahaweli river, commonly referred to as the ' Dumbara Valley' (Dumbara means veiled with mist).The general landscape of the area is extremely rugged, with at least 35 peaks rising above 900m.The aggregation of spectacular peaks is a unique feature of the Knuckles forest range. The highest peak is Gombaniya (1900 m) The Knuckles mountains have been designated a forest reserve in recognition of its natural habitats that harbor some unique plants and animals, and in view of its importance as a water shed area, with several streams draining into the Mahaweli river basin. In the Estern slopes the streams drain to Mahaweli River through Sudu River Kalu River & Ambang River. In the Western slope the streams flow to Mahaweli River through Huluganga.
