Indiana Jones - Bushwalk Programme

Raiders of the lost plains

Nestled up in the hills, Ahaspokuna is a hidden treasure in the middle of a Nature Reserve. The beautiful terrain around it offers the perfect bushwalking trails for new explorers, historians, or experienced trekkers. Elephant forged trails take you through beautiful scenery, mountain ranges, waterfalls, grasslands and even through rural villages, all the while bringing you close encounters and sightings of birds and beasts of the land. Uncover the exciting mysteries behind our bushwalk and wilderness living experience, unmatched anywhere else in Sri Lanka.

The crusade to uncover history

You will be accompanied on your bushwalks by people who know the lay of the land; our professional and experienced Naturalists, Trekking Guides and 3rd generation Bushmen. They will point out significant features along the way as well as provide interesting titbits about the creatures you encounter. Our go-team is made up of people who love exploring and protecting Nature, so be free with your questions about the wilderness, the historical site of the Uva Rebellion of 1818 which is part of Ahaspokuna, tales of the Balangoda Man who lived in caves and ate snails, and the old ways of ancient Sri Lanka.

Wilderness spa and lounge

As exciting as they are, all our bushwalks and excursions are completely optional. If you’d rather sleep-in your luxury suite-tent, paint, sunbathe, pick up an interesting book from your tent’s mini library, enjoy a glass of wine in your wild Bush Bathtub, or even just drink a cup of tea and watch wandering butterflies and birds from your balcony.... the entire grassland is really your wilderness spa and lounge.
