Notably, the President embarked on this journey by traversing the Pekoe Trail. The “Pekoe Trail” spans 300+ km through the Central Highlands of Sri Lanka and is regarded as one of Asia’s best-kept secret routes.
Originating from the renowned city of Kandy, it extends south towards the Hatton and Horton Plains National Park, then east through Haputale and Ella, before meandering around the charming town of Nuwara Eliya. Originally constructed during the British colonial period to transport tea from vast plantations to factories, the trail holds historical significance.
During his walk along the Pekoe Trail, covering a distance of 3.2 km, the President engaged in friendly conversation with the workers employed at the Court Lodge estate. Welcoming the President warmly, the people expressed their heartfelt wishes for a joyous Sinhala and Tamil New Year.
