The journey began with a breathtaking train ride through Sri Lanka’s lush hill country, where the landscape unfolded like a dream — endless green tea plantations, mist-covered valleys, and cascading waterfalls around every bend. The open doors and windows of the train allowed the cool mountain breeze and scent of fresh tea leaves to sweep in, making the ride feel like a scene from a postcard.
As the raft slices through the frothing rapids of the Kelani River, a surge of adrenaline pulses through my veins. Towering rainforest trees arch overhead, their lush canopies dripping with emerald leaves. The air is thick with mist and the earthy scent of wet foliage. All around, the forest hums with life — the melodic calls of tropical birds echo through the greenery, weaving a natural symphony that dances above the roar of the water. Between the bursts of white water, calm stretches allow me to take it all in: vivid kingfishers dart across the river, and distant monkey calls blend into the jungle chorus. In Kitulgala, the thrill of rafting collides beautifully with the serenity of untouched nature.
