The Pekoe Trail is a 300-kilometer, meticulously curated long-distance walking trail that winds its way through the enchanting Central Highlands of Sri Lanka.

It is often regarded as one of Asia's best-kept secrets and takes in some of South Asia's most breathtaking mountain landscapes

The Pekoe Trail is divided into 22 stages through South Asia's most breathtaking mountain landscapes, lush tea plantations, and diverse ecosystems.

Along the way, hikers encounter vibrant local communities, each offering a glimpse into Sri Lanka's rich traditions, warm hospitality and unique cultural heritage, making the experience as meaningful as it is adventurous.

Widely celebrated as one of the world's top hiking experiences,

The Pekoe Trail combines natural beauty, cultural immersion, and unparalleled adventure, setting a new standard for trekking and redefining Sri Lanka as a must-visit destination for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

The trail is the first in a series of walking trails by Serendipity Trails designed to allow visitors to discover the varying terrain, history, culture, food, and local communities across Sri Lanka by foot.

As the first of hopefully many long-distance walking trails in Sri Lanka, it can be completed in short sections, or as part of a multi-day experience taking visitors through an eclectic mix of hill towns, tea plantations, remote villages, sanctuaries, viewpoints, forests, and cultural and historical locations.

The interconnecting trail demonstrates the island's diversity, encourages sustainable travel and brings economic opportunity to rural communities in order to promote a more holistic traveller experience that embraces adventure, nature, wellness, and sustainability.
