The Pekoe Trail is an exciting new 300 km network of trails starting in Kandy, that has already been credited as one of the five most incredible walks in the world. Funded by the European Union and USAID, this epic socially sustainable hike has been designed for responsible travellers with a love of meeting people and respect for their culturally rich traditions. We have combined parts of the trail with visits to Artisanal Tea Establishments which produce unique handcrafted teas and share a percentage of their revenue with workers and therefore increasing their income.
The extraordinarily diverse Pekoe Trail has been purposefully developed to connect many culturally interesting spots together from important hill station towns, through time-locked villages with ancient festive traditions, old colonial train stations, and tea museums telling the human story. Meeting with artisanal tea makers; plucking tea and hand rolling with the workers gives an unique insight to their lives.
The pinnacle of this hiking experience is a spiritual journey to Sri Pada which means holy footprint and originates from when Adam set his foot on earth at this place after being cast out of heaven. Thus, the pilgrimage to the temple located at the very top of the mountain.
