Knuckles Range
The Knuckles Range is on the World Heritage Site. It is preserved for its biological hydrological and aesthetic values. The landscape has breathtakingly panoramic views. It reaches an altitude between 900 and 1600 metres. You can walk around and see an diverse of flora and fauna.
This range is important for conservation because of its high elevation and therefore colder temperatures, many of the species survive and are endemic. From Kandy it takes you only just over 2 hours to be on the Knuckles Range where you find yourself in a completely different habitat. Camping around the Knuckles is also an option.
The knuckes range has 17 birds which belong only to Sri Lanka ( endemic)
