Ella to Demodara – 8.75 km
This stage is currently under development – the stage is walkable but not yet signposted. The official opening of this stage will be announced soon.
Ella draws travelers to Sri Lanka’s highlands with its mountain forests, tea plantations, and relatively cool climate and is a very popular stop, start, or ending point along the trail. Starting at the train station, this walk to Demodera is very doable and very easy. It is one of the shortest stages of The Pekoe Trail and one of the most popular ones.
