Borderlands is a funky "glamping" site on the banks of the Kelani river, a beautiful stretch of water where watersports are available for those who wish to see the forest from a different perspective. We enjoyed an afternoon of kayaking with some gentle white water and swimming, and Borderlands also offers white water rafting and canyoning excursions which are highly recommended in this area. The family accommodation was a large treehouse open to the rushing river below...truly wonderful and memorable, though quite rustic and not for those looking for luxury. Food was a mostly european choice although we did persuade them to provide us with Sri Lankan food whilst we were there. The young chef excelled at local food but was not so hot on Western offerings! All in all a great place to spend a couple of nights.

De hemel op aarde!!! Nog nooit op zo'n mooie plek geslapen!! Wat een aanrader is dit! In de openlucht slapen, zwemmen in de rivier, raften, canyoning, maar vooral genieten als je 's ochtends wakker wordt! De schoonheid van Sri Lanka om je heen, waterbuffels aan de rivier .... Maar ook de dag zelf en het vallen van de avond. WAUW!!!

If you want to stay in a lovely cottage with open view without windows on river and jungle then this is the place to be. The food (lunch, diner and breakfast) is limited but various and delicious. Manager Samiré and his team are very friendly and they help you where they can. The canyoning and rafting facilities are very well guided.

We had the best experience white water rafting with Borderlands in Kitulgala! The Kelani river provides the most beautiful setting (and the location where Bridge Over the River Kwai was filmed!) and Wade’s team is experienced, kind and welcoming. We had so much fun in the rapids! Now we want to come back to try all the other activities Borderlands provides. Thank you everyone! Shirani, David, Manoli and Ela

Superleuke ervaring! Overnachting in een open hut aan de rivier met prachtig uitzicht. Lekker eten, gezellige sfeer. Allemaal basic, maar wel proper en professioneel gerund. Erg vriendelijke mensen. Dag nadien gaan raften en canyoning met onze kinderen 10, 12 en 14): absolute topervaring, echt goede en professionele begeleiding. Zeker een aanrader als je in Sri Lanka bent.

We've had an amazing stay at Borderlands. It is now off-season in Sri Lanka so it wasn't very busy, nevertheless we felt very welcome. We had some nice chats and drinks with the owner and the crew and made some new friends as well. The rooms are nice and tidy and the food is amazing. Last but not least: they have the best trained crew for activities such as canyoning amd rafting. Would definitely recommend!

Borderlands Adventure Eco-Lodge is a great place to stay if you are looking for an adventure-filled vacation in Kitulgala, Sri Lanka. The lodge is located on the banks of the Kelani River, making it a perfect base for white water rafting, canyoning, and kayaking. The food at Borderlands is delicious and plentiful. All meals are served in the Long House, which has a large dining area and a bar. The lodge also has a campfire area where guests can relax and socialize in the evening. The staff at Borderlands are friendly and helpful. They are knowledgeable about the area and can help you plan your activities.

Fab location overlooking the river. Staff are very friendly, food is plentiful, beer is cold. Great afternoon white water rafting and canyoning, felt very safe with the two guides. Good fun for teens and their parents. The cabins are very rustic. Lots of wildlife included so did not result in a great nigh’s sleep but the joy of waking up to the sound of the river and the bird song makes up for the slightly uncomfortable sleep. We were the only tourists at the time of the stay, a large group of school children were leaving as we arrived. The atmosphere would be better with more guests.
