About Madulsima Mini World's End

 

Located in the mountainous village of Madulsima in Badulla District, this breathtaking viewpoint sits at 1,355 meters (4,445 feet) above sea level at the edge of the famous Roeberry Tea Estate near Passara. Known as Pitamaruwa Mini World's End, this destination is renowned for offering camping experiences above the clouds.

From this stunning precipice, visitors can enjoy panoramic views extending across the entire Uva Province and even into the Eastern Province. The area sits at an elevation ranging from 2,300 to 3,400 feet above sea level, creating the perfect conditions for that magical above-the-clouds camping experience.

 

Camping Information & Requirements

 

Permission and Management

While the Mini World's End is situated on the edge of the Roeberry Tea Estate, it is managed by the tourist board of the Uva Province, and camping is permitted in the area. However, it's advisable to check current regulations and obtain proper permissions before your visit, especially for group camping.

What Makes This Special

The Mini World's End is positioned at the edge of a massive cliff with safety rails on each side, making it a unique and safe camping spot. This location offers a truly tranquil and scenic environment perfect for camping adventures above the clouds.

 

Essential Preparation

 

What to Pack

Essential items include:

  • Sufficient water supplies
  • Flashlights/torches
  • Leech protection gear
  • Complete camping equipment (tents, sleeping bags, etc.)
  • Extra layers of warm clothing for the cool mountain climate

Weather Considerations

Due to the high elevation and mountain location, temperatures can drop significantly at night. The area is often shrouded in mist and clouds, creating a mystical atmosphere but also requiring adequate preparation for cool, damp conditions.

 

Getting There

 

Transportation Options

Public transport is available to Madulsima from Passara or Badulla, but using a private vehicle is recommended. Road conditions can be challenging in some sections, making a 4-wheel drive vehicle or motorcycle ideal for the journey.

The location is approximately 51.6 km from Ella (about 2 hours and 14 minutes drive), making it accessible as a day trip or weekend camping adventure from popular tourist areas.

Final Approach

The last portion of the journey to the Mini World's End viewpoint must be completed on foot, adding an element of adventure to your camping experience.

Best Time to Visit

The dry season (December to March) typically offers the clearest views and most comfortable camping conditions. However, the area's unique cloud formations can create spectacular scenery year-round, with morning hours often providing the most dramatic views as clouds lift from the valleys below.
