{"product_id":"knuckles-mountain-range-hike-from-kandy","title":"Knuckles Mountain Range Hike from Kandy","description":"\u003cp\u003e(SKU: LK7417363E)The Knuckles Mountain Range lies in central Sri Lanka, in the Districts of Matale and Kandy. The range takes its name from a series of recumbent folds and peaks in the west of the massif which resembles the knuckles of clenched fist when viewed from certain locations in the Kandy District. Whilst this name was assigned by early British surveyors, the Sinhalese residents have traditionally referred to the area as Dumbara Kanduvetiya meaning mist-laden mountain range. Knuckles Mountain Forest Range covering an area of approximately 21,000 ha is a part of the Central Highlands World Heritage site, declared in 2010. Though it is a part of Central Highlands it is well separated by Mahaweli river valley from the sides of South and east and Matale valley from the west.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eService of an English-speaking adventure specialist.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLunch.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRefreshments with energy slabs.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eFirst aid with qualified first aid officer.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eBack up vehicle for emergency transport.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSupport staff fee for guide, helper(s), and qualified first aid officer.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExcludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eHotel pickup and drop-off.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eAny transportation up to the trail head at Knuckles Mountain.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eAny additional beverages or food.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eGratuities (Optional).\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eExpenses of personal nature.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExperience:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eArrival time will be 0630 hrs at the Knuckles Mountain range trailhead.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eBrief description of the route and the hike.
