After another Rain & Relax Day I finally left Nuwara Eliya in the early morning hours under still wet conditions. Alex and his boys made our stay as comfortable as possible and the international hiker & biker community had a lot of time for exchange! These hostels are great socialising melting points me pushing the average age up!

At some stretches during today’s ride you can feel how beautiful the scenery here shall be, if the weather plays a bit more with you. 🙏 tomorrow.

Ella is very touristy, compared to what I have seen so far. 50% tourists on the streets, I would guess.

Fair winds…
