Knuckles
Riverston
Mini World's End is a viewpoint, not a long trek by itself. Walkers use Riverston as a scenic day on the way into the range, or as one morning inside a longer Knuckles itinerary. Wind and cloud change the view within an hour, so early starts are worth it.

Questions
Is Mini World's End the same place as Horton Plains World's End?
No. Horton Plains World's End is a national-park cliff near Ohiya. Mini World's End is the viewpoint at Riverston in the Knuckles, a different mountain range north of Kandy.
Do I need a guide for the viewpoint?
You can visit the viewpoint on a scenic drive. A guide matters when the day continues onto forest trails, where permits and route-finding apply.
