Explore tiny hamlets along the Kalu Ganga near Bentota or a breezy ride through rubber plantations, where symmetrical rows of straight rubber trees line the track like eves of an open air cathedral. Mountain bikes, BBQ lunch and drinks all laid on, just bring your willing calves, breath in cinnamon scented air, witness the same landscape that was here a hundred years ago while you skim past inland waterways, old Dutch canals, secret Follies or colonial grandeur encapsulated by Lanka’s pundit Architect, Geoffrey Bawa.
