Knuckles mountain range, situated in the north-east of central hills in Sri Lanka, is one of the most important natural sites in the country. The vast mountain range consists of 34 peaks in total, with five peaks resembling the shape of a knuckle. The unique location of this mountain range places it in the path of both monsoons. Coupled with the presence of a large number of mountain peaks and valleys, the entire region is unbelievably diverse in terms of climate, terrain, vegetation and obviously, animal life.
Deanston is home to one of the most popular hiking trails around the Knuckles mountain range. It is also the starting point in the hike to yet another Mini World’s End. Incidentally, this is the second Mini World’s End to be discovered in the Knuckles mountain range and even though it may be the second, the view and hiking experience is quite different to that of Pitawala Pathana (Other Mini Worlds end in Knuckles Range)
The overall hiking trail passing Deanston Mini World’s End is a moderate 3 kilometers long. The actual precipice is located just over a kilometer into the hike. The trail itself is well curated and protected.
