This urban forest sanctuary sits above Kandy city, protecting 257 acres of tropical hill country vegetation. The hiking trail winds through dense canopy where purple-faced langur monkeys, endemic bird species, and giant fruit bats live. Ancient Buddhist meditation caves dot the forest, some dating back over 2,000 years. Best for hikers and wildlife spotters. This is a moderate activity lasting 3 hours. See all nature tours in Kandy.
