Koslanda – Panoramas, Hidden Valleys, and Highland Retreats

Description

Tucked away in Sri Lanka’s central highlands, Koslanda is a quiet hillside village that rewards travelers with sweeping viewpoints, serene tea valleys, and unspoiled natural beauty. Its cool climate, lush forests, and terraced landscapes make it an ideal stop for those seeking both scenic vistas and slow-paced mountain charm.

The crown jewel here is Pilkington Point, a stunning lookout perched on the Haputale–Koslanda escarpment. From this vantage, visitors are treated to breathtaking views that sweep across tea plantations, paddy fields, and distant lowlands stretching toward the southern coast. Equally mesmerizing is Millennium Point, another dramatic cliff-edge viewpoint where mist rolls in and out, revealing panoramic scenery that changes with every passing moment. Both sites are perfect for sunrise or sunset, when the highland light paints the valleys in gold.

Koslanda also serves as a gateway to trekking trails and waterfalls, offering adventures into hidden corners of the hill country. The quiet ambiance, boutique lodges, and eco- retreats in the area make it not just a viewpoint stop, but also a wellness hideaway for yoga, meditation, and Ayurvedic experiences amidst nature’s calm
