Hiriketiya to  Nuwara Eliya  : Distance & Travel Time

• This is one of the most scenic but also longest drives you can take in Sri Lanka, moving from the sunny southern coast up into the misty central highlands. The route is a combination of expressways and mountainous A-roads.
• Most Efficient Route:
  1. Hiriketiya -> Matara (Coastal Road)
  2. Matara -> Expressway (E01) northbound
  3. Expressway -> Exit at Kurunegala
  4. Kurunegala -> Dambulla via A6 road
  5. Dambulla -> Nuwara Eliya via A5 and A7 roads (through Kandy and Ginigathena) OR via the more direct Ginigathena-Hatton road (A7).
• Scenery: The journey transitions from coastal plains to lush, terraced hillsides, tea plantations, and winding mountain roads.

 2. Travel Time

• The travel time is highly variable and should be planned for carefully.
• With Expressway & Good Conditions: The absolute best time is around 4.5 – 5 hours.
• Standard Conditions: Expect 5.5 – 6.5 hours. This accounts for regular traffic, especially through towns like Kurunegala and Dambulla.
• With Heavy Traffic / Bad Weather: The journey can easily take 7 hours or more. Afternoon traffic leaving Colombo can spill onto the expressway, and fog/rain in the hills can slow progress significantly.
