Sembuwatta Lake Tour from Kandy

4 Hours

Sembuwatta Lake is a man-made pool of water in Matale District, Sri Lanka, formed from natural spring water near the Campbell’s Lane Forest Reserve. The vast expanse of deep blue oceans, along with hazy mountains and tea plantations, creates a stunning backdrop and is an excellent place to immerse yourself in your thoughts and reflect on the fantastic sights you’ve seen on your tour around Sri Lanka.

Sembuwatta Lake, a lovely area with natural spring water, is one of the hill country’s most fantastic attractions. It is set among the large tea gardens and reflects the natural beauty of the area. The breathtaking green mountains with a dense pine forest that rise above the lake are well worth the effort of ascending. There is a natural spring water pool beside the lake, and there are summer villas and cottages all around this gorgeous lake.
