About this activity
This two-day walk joins Pekoe stages 1 and 2, from Hantana to Galaha and on to Loolkandura, about 27.5 kilometres in total. You sleep between the stages instead of rushing both in a day. The starting rate is 120 US dollars from Kandy, including a guide and the night. Bring a Pekoe Trail pass.
Stage 1 is the easier introduction, with the view back to the Knuckles. Stage 2 is longer and ends at Loolkandura's old tea land. Splitting them keeps the first day kind and the second day honest. The overnight is a simple guesthouse near the trail, not a camp.
Note: About 27.54 km on foot. Pickup in Kandy at 7:30 a.m. Drop-off Kandy, day 2 afternoon.

Can you add stage 3?
Yes. The three-day version continues to Tawalantenne. Stage 3 is the long one, so only add it if the first two days felt fine.
