      The Knuckles Mountain Range is a very picturesque mountainous region in central Sri Lanka. The range can be reached in just about an hour's drive from Kandy. Once here you can choose to take a scenic drive and enjoy the views or tackle one of the many hikes in the area.

      We drove into the Knuckles and then did a short hike called "Mini World's End". As you explore the Knuckles you will see many lush forests and enjoy views of the surrounding lakes and mountains.

      For those really wanting to do longer hikes in the Knuckles, consider the Nitro Caves hike or the Duwili Ella Trail.

      You can easily explore the Knuckles on your own if you have your own transport.
