Knuckles Mountain Range, Matale and Kandy, Central Province
The Knuckles Forest Range is named after the five peaks; Kirigalpottha, Gombaniya, Knuckles, Koboneelagala, and Dotulugala, which look like the knuckles of a clenched fist, that could be seen from many viewpoints.
The Knuckles , locally called as ‘Dumbara hills’ meaning misty mountains, spans the Kandy and Matale Districts covering an area of approximately 21000 ha. The Knuckles massif is separated from the Central Highlands by a deeply incised valley referred to as the Dumbara Valley. It bears the pride of 35 peaks above 1000 m above sea level, 20 over 1500 m, and 2 peaks over 2000 m.
The area above 1500 m in the Knuckles Range was declared as a climatic Reserve in 1873. The Knuckles was declared as a conservation forest in April 2000 and subsequently, as a National Man and Biosphere Reserve.
The Knuckles along with Peak Wilderness forest area and Horton Plains (collectively called ‘Central Highlands of Sri Lanka’)declared as a World Heritage Natural Site in 2009.

Kotagaga Falls - Knuckles Mountain Range Sri Lanka
The Knuckles Mountain Range lies in central Sri Lanka, in the Districts of Matale and Kandy. The range takes its name from a series of recumbent folds and peaks in the west of the massif which resemble the knuckles of clenched fist when viewed from certain locations in the Kandy District. Whilst this name was assigned by early British surveyors, the Sinhalese residents have traditionally referred to the area as Dumbara Kanduvetiya meaning Mist-laden Mountain Range.

Here is our story to the top of Duwili Ella
climbing 5 hills, passing 11 smaller waterfalls, 40 km by foot we came to the top of the Duwili Ella in the heart of knuckles. It took us 48 hours to complete this hike which was worth every second of the way.
We took a bus from Colombo fort to Kandy and then to Matale from Kandy arriving at Mathale early in the morning before the sun and took a cab to Attanwala, a very rural village on the edge of the knuckles reserve
And now shit gets real
We endured 8+ hours of mountains cool breeze and magnificent waterfalls and forest...On the way, we passed a few waterfalls belonging to the cascading waterfall series of Duwili Ella, but the one which took our breath off was the Dumbara Ella ... this was a magnificent masterpiece of mother nature... we finally made it to the to the cave at the top of the Duwili Ella... where we camped for the night.
The following morning was when we really saw it.. once the rays of the morning sun hit us we came across the view that we had been yearning for all this time... from the top of Duwili Ella in the far reaches we could see Manigala and also Maligathenna... then and there we knew the view of the knuckles forest from up there was worth all the trouble.
After a quick breakfast, we headed back to the village just before it got dark and headed back to Matale and then straight to Colombo with a bunch of breathtaking memories.
Special thanks to our guide along the way Ekanayaka mama and last but not the least tharanaya.lk the tour planers, for organising this memorable encounter .
My drone is fu****up because of the rain and wind but I just probably got the coolest drone shots in my life
Don’t let anything in life. stop you from doing. what you want, you want it to go after it.
Those are the moments we live for, Live a life you will remember.
