Looking for an easy but delightful bicycle ride that everyone can do? The Paddy Trail is for you.

We stick to local paths and quiet lanes on this 11km loop from your base near Yatagala Temple.

Beautiful nature, exotic birds, indigenous wildlife, local life – you’ll see it all as you pedal through the Eluvila Bird Sanctuary and meander across the green paddy fields.

One highlight is pausing in your private jungle garden. And sipping fresh king coconut under the shady ambalama by a pond of blue water lilies. Can you spot the mango, cashew, cinnamon, banana, jackfruit, calamansi, coconut and pepper trees and bushes?
