Explore Horton Plains – Home of World's End
A highland plateau reserve known for the dramatic cliff-edge viewpoint at World's End and cool cloud-forest scenery.
Why Visit Horton Plains National Park
Horton Plains National Park sits high in Sri Lanka's central hill country, a rolling grassland and cloud-forest plateau best known for World's End — a sheer escarpment with a drop of several hundred metres. A loop trail also passes Baker's Falls, and the cool climate and misty scenery make it a distinctly different experience from the lowlands.
Horton Plains National Park Day Tour Highlights
- • Hike the loop trail to the World's End viewpoint and Baker's Falls
- • Spot native wildlife such as sambar deer along the trail
- • Photograph the plateau's grassland and cloud-forest scenery
