Thelgamu Oya Campsite
About
Choose Thelgamu Oya Campsite for a campsite or camping ground in Sri Lanka, set inland on the island. The site takes its name from the Thelgamu Oya, the stream running through this part of the hill country.
Camping here means pitching beside flowing water in Sri Lanka's central highlands, where the air is cooler and wetter than the coastal plains. Colombo, Galle, Kandy, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay are the better-known stops elsewhere on the island, and Kandy is the closest of them to the hill country. Five reviews have left Thelgamu Oya Campsite with an average of 4.4 out of 5.
Campers should plan on bringing their own tent, bedding and cooking kit, and on treating the site as a base for walking rather than a serviced resort. The stream and the surrounding forest set the tone of a stay.
Sri Lanka has an extensive railway network, and the hill-country line from Kandy to Ella is popular with visitors, so a train leg pairs well with a night here. Pidurutalagala is the highest peak in Sri Lanka, and Adam's Peak is a pilgrimage site climbed in season. Full-moon Poya days are public holidays, which affects travel plans and opening times across the island.
