Our story

A community built on the trail

What started as weekend hikes between friends is now one of Sri Lanka's most-loved adventure communities — 6,700 strong and growing.

How it began

From a handful of friends to a movement

In 2018, a small group of friends from Piliyandala started escaping the city every weekend to explore the peaks and trails around them. The trips got bigger, the stories better, and word spread fast.

Unanduwa was born from a simple belief: the wild places of Sri Lanka should be open to everyone — safely, affordably and without the hassle of planning it all yourself. Today we run guided hikes, treks and camping expeditions almost every weekend, welcoming first-timers and seasoned trekkers alike.

Hi, I'm Gemunu — let's hit the trail together

I started Unanduwa to share the Sri Lanka I love — its hidden peaks, misty trails and starlit campsites — and to make sure every trip is safe, welcoming and genuinely beyond your expectations. Whether you're lacing up for your first hike or your fiftieth, there's a place for you on our next trip.
