Bentota to Ella : Distance & Travel Time
This is a full-day journey that traverses the island from the southwest coast to the central highlands. The route is a combination of expressways and spectacular mountain roads.
- Standard Route:
- Bentota → Southern Expressway (E01) north.
- Connect to the Outer Circular Highway (OCH).
- Exit onto the A1 road and proceed through Kandy.
- From Kandy, take the A5 road through Nuwara Eliya and Bandarawela.
- Finally, take the A16 or A23 to Ella.
2. Travel Time
This is the most variable factor. While the expressway section is fast, the mountain roads from Kandy to Ella are narrow, steep, and winding, making for slow progress.
- Best Case (Ideal Conditions, Early Start): 5 hours
- Average Case: 5.5 – 6.5 hours
- Worst Case (Heavy Traffic, Fog, Rain): 7+ hours
CRUCIAL TIP: An early morning departure (by 6:00 AM) is absolutely essential. This helps you avoid traffic around Colombo and Kandy and ensures you ascend the mountains and reach Ella before dark and before the notorious afternoon mist and fog set in, which can be hazardous.
