Did you know how thrilling cycling can be in Sri Lanka?

 

For generations, adventurers and traders have been lured to this Indian Ocean pearl. Many travelers, from Marco Polo to Paul Theroux, have been inspired by the island’s wide variety of topography and animals within a tiny geographical space. Monkeys, crocodiles, elephants, leopards, and unique bird speciaes are among the island’s natural species. Following the end of a 30-year civil war in 2009, Sri Lanka is quickly becoming a popular cycling vacation destination, Blue Lanka Tours is more than excited to bring forward a Cycling Tour for all cyclists who are keen to explore Sri Lanka – a truly diverse nation that has everything to offer.

 

Sri Lanka in a Cycle

Ceylon Hikka Tours’ cycling tour in Sri Lanka begins with a very exciting morning ride to the Negombo Fish Market and then continues bypassing the fishing areas of Chillaw as we ride on to explore the cultural triangle; the historic Sinhalese ‘King’s Land,’ encountering medieval ruins and holy temples. There is nothing like getting on your cycling and taking a historic memory lane down to the stories of our great kinds in Anuradhapura , Polonnaruwa and Dambulla kingdoms. Take the next destination cycling tour to Kandy, where the final Sri Lankan bastion to resist colonial invaders in the nineteenth century. There is lots to see and enjoy here, set in the rainforest with an outstanding religious temple and beautiful

gardens. Our Ceylon Hikka Tours, cycling vacation continues as we pedal through the sensational hill country – get off from Nanu Oya and hop on your cycle as you progress to Nuwara Eliya town. There is nothing like the cool climes tempting at your skin.

 

The exciting ride continues to Udawalawe through beautiful sights of Water Falls and a mini detour trek. From waking up the next day to taking your jeep safari at Udawalawe National Park, the cycling continues down South, where the beautiful coastal line boasts the tropics of Sri Lanka. With many activities waiting for you down the Southern costal line, we continue on to old Galle, a 16th century walled city where our cycling adventure comes to a close.
