This picture was taken at a place close to Haldummulla on the way to Haputhale. The mountain and the surrounding are quite scenic especially with the mist coming from one side.
This area is a great place for hikers as there are endless hiking routes connecting many places. You may find lots of streams, waterfalls and hills along these paths. Climate is also very soothing, not so cold not so warm.

What a lot of greenery.. can't even count the number of green shades I see.. =D
Lanka sure is an evergreen paradise. ^__^ Thanks for the info and the great pic!
I am too green with jealousy to comment.
You and Jaliya out at lankareviewed got it made.
Wish I was back home.
Awesome!! Peace and blessings from Brooklyn, New York to your wonderful paradise. Great pictures.
That's a lovely Photograph K! Kinda reminds me of Hantana... :)
I am starting to believe that SL and Penang are siblings. If you have hiked, or are going to, then I'll enjoy a closer feel on the place.
it sounds like a hiking paradise indeed, i love the picture, the mist created a dramatic touch to the picture.
Harumi,
Yep not as easy as counting the hues like the post on Sea and Lagoon. :)
Lots of greenery in this parts of the country!
Sbarrkum,

Deborah,
Peace and blessings from Sri Lanka too.
Saw your blog too. Keep it up :)
Chavie,
Yep. It is quite close to Hanthana. the difference is not many people hiking here.
Rainfield61,
Me too quite impressed with Penang thanks to your weblog!
I'll upload more closer views soon! Planning to do a hike in the hillcountry soon.
Betchai,
Yep it is indeed a paradise for hikers. I like misty mountains a lot!!
Thanks all for your wonderful comments!
Ya for sure! =D
And like Chavie says my first impression of the pic too was Hanthane.. cuz of the shape and shades. It's amazing there are look-alikes for peaks too. =D
I like the way you have captured the mist settling over the top of the mountain.
Harumi,
Yes. definitly a look alike for hanthane. Can be distant cousins :)
I do not know the exact name of the mountain but this is one of the peaks South of Horton.
George,
Yes these mountains are always misty and pictures always look very attractive!
Thanks both for your comments!
Beautiful!!

This picture reminds me of home!
Enjoyed reading your blog.
FOGSL once did a trip to this area and I missed it. I must join them next time as I heard the area is good for birds too.
Freedom,
Thanks for your comments and glad you enjoyed this blog.
Gallicissa,
Pity you missed that trip. Try to make it next time.. I have seen many birds this area although I'm not that good in identifying them. A lot of migratory birds also visit these area..I guess.
Tks for your comments.
The mist creates a magical blue haze over the mountain! Delightful!
What a beautiful place, I love all the green looks so lush. Thansk for sharing your scenic Sunday.
Beautiful photo but the climate sounds perfect
I'm amazed by this pic. It could be taken in Scotland!
Greyscale Territory,
Yes I love mist and the mountains:)
