What lies beyond Sri Lanka’s beaches and famous landmarks? This cycling route starts in Arugam Bay and heads inland through villages, paddy fields and quieter roads towards Habarana, giving you a closer look at everyday life along the way.

Ride towards Pasikudah and its calm bay, continue to ancient Polonnaruwa to explore Gal Vihara, Vatadage and other historic monuments, then travel on to Trincomalee with its beaches, harbour and nearby Pigeon Island. The final cycling stage leads to Habarana, in the heart of Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle.

Hybrid bikes, helmets, an English-speaking guide and a support vehicle with cycle-mechanics staff are provided throughout the journey. Accommodation is in three-star hotels, so you can focus on the ride and the changing scenery from coast to countryside. Join this cycling adventure and discover Sri Lanka at the pace of two wheels!
