Hiking Adarakanda

Another my one of amazing hiking was just started from pambahinna.It’s Adarakanda..Why we used to called it so the reason is it is the mountain that is famous for very first trip for new comers in the university of samabaragamuwa each year. It is related it’s own culture.New batch used to climb this surprised holly mountain to make their brotherhood more stronger.

In Belihul oya there are so many mountains such as Haagala,Haawagala,Paraviyangala,Gomali kanda etc.

 Here I am expressing about our amazing trip to adarakanda.It is exactly great experience as it was.We went their with three of my university mates.

We started our journey at 5.30 p.m from pambahinna junction.we used to arranged our dinner and other essentials and foods for two days.First of all we found the entrance to the group of mountain which is situated about 600m near to pambahinna junction.

Then we just continued our hiking. It took us nearly three hours to reach the very first place namely Geo point which we can take fresh water from the sources.It says that this is the only place which we can find water in mountain adrakanda..the journey was tough..gruel..but hopeful..

Just get dark scond by scond but no any feeling to stop the moving..we was to saw a small light in top of the mountain far away from our location..hopefully we used to find our destination through the darkness and curiosity..  Finally we reached to fair high of the mountain and we selected there to stay over the night..we arranged there as much as facilitated for the high-sleep night.
We took bread as our dinner.

Then it’s our time to sleep under the dark sky.No moon light at all..that is great  experience as it was..how free that was..how cool there was..how dangerous there was to fell..we went to sleep on the hard rock..we have ever sleep in such a open air area before...It was actually very good night in fair words..

Another new sunrise..another new begging...

Just another new day..it was nearly 5.30 a.m..I got up..friends got up..

Oh my god...have no any words to be compared..
what a view..what a place we were there..i have never seen such a place within my naked eye.we were surprised for long time...

Credit goes to you guys...(Chathura,Kavindu,Thilina) 

We used to continue our journey again within few minutes preparing..what a cool and fresh morning that was..we passed another top of another mountain within three or four hours.then it’s our time to feel the highest view of the group of mountains..it was the highest place of our journey. we took our breakfast there.within few seconds freeze came here and cover the area where we stay..we just surprised again again..
How breath taking surprise of nature that was....

We started our journey under huge clouds near to us..we had no any expectation about the next destination..still we were keep moving..we have already reached the top of the mountain..

We decided to  keep moving to the forward..no turning back..we heard that there is no any way to move through the mountains for the back of the mountain side which we can't watch from the university premises.but we found the way to another expectation..

No any previous road marks or even and mark of steps..just keep moving..
Water level of the bottle was getting low..no foods more except few crumbs..where we go..who knows..

After two or three hours we used to saw a tea plantation..therefor we make the expectation of having village and it’s villagers..we passed small waterfalls and fill our bottles with fresh water and have small break..tired to us...

We saw a very tiny and beautiful village which is surrounded by huge mountains and mist..I have only seen such a beautiful village in pictures and videos.. What a wonderful village that has well managed life style and very riched in village essentials..
It is Uggal duwa village..there was nearly 12 houses with few people..one shop was there with few goods..but that is also not a shop but also a room of house.we move for them and we found a person called mayuran who is much hospitable for us.It was dipavaali day. Villagers were kind enough to pay us foods..thanks to theirself  we took our lunch and we leave mayuran’s home.

We decided to take the bus that is daily come for the village.then we foot for the bus which leave at 3.00 p.m from there village school to balangoda.
we saw another waterfall closed to our moving road.then it was just our bathing time..after few hours of having our  bath again we started the end session of our journey..
Number of waterfalls are there closed to the traveling road and we took the bus which is transporting Nan-perial to Balangoda.it took us nearly one hour to reach pambahinna junction through little wide road with eye catching background. It was nearly 6 p.m and we finished our fabulous journey.

It was hard.. strange.. dangerous...but always hopeful.. but exactly we may never forget that trip..

Here are some of our galleries..See you again with amazing journey..
