Katusu Konda ( Knife-edge ) – Hanthana
Description
Katusu Konda also knows as Knife-edge, is an unforgettable adventure for experience the excellence of the environment at the Hanthana mountain range. It gets its name because it is a high peak with a narrow tip similar to a lizard's backbone. You are gazing down from here, a dangerously steep slope.
The easiest route is to run towards Peradeniya. You have to move about 7km from Peradeniya to lead the Sarasawigama. Following that, you can take a bus till you arrive at the Sarasawigama. If you want to go past that, you have to go on a tuk-tuk or hike. It's another 4km from Sarasavigama to Upland. About 2km along the difficult road in front of the little temple and shop in Upland, you will see a few tiny houses. The footpath to the mountain is discovered only after you have gone through those little houses.
