Our First Guests to hike the Pekoe Trail Stage 13 from Haputale to Lipton's Seat
In July 2023 we had our first guests that hiked Stage 13 of the Pekoe Trail starting in Haputale to Lipton’s Seat.
We were delighted that they were happy to share their photographs with us so we could give you a taste of what you will experience on the hike.
Our guests had a leisurely breakfast at GlenMyu Estate before they drove to Haputale for the start of their hike.
They found the hike quite tiring and hired a Tuk Tuk to take them back from Lipton’s Seat to Haputale to pick up their car.
There were not many hikers on this stage of the Pekoe Trail however we would expect there to be more people tackling the trail as it gets established. Â
You can find out more about the Pekoe Trail at the official Pekoe Trail website.
Lipton’s Seat is a famous landmark in the Sri Lankan Hill Country where Thomas Lipton would sit with a cup of tea in hand and proudly look over his estate!
We would like to say a big thank you to George and Emily for sharing their photos with us so that we could share them with you.
Why our guests chose GlenMyu Estate when they hiked Stage 13 of the Pekoe Trail?
We believe that our guests were looking for a place where they could truly relax after their hike and have a really good bespoke meal. As we only have three bedrooms at the estate there is a little bit of luxury for you in the Sri Lankan Hill Country.
We are listed on Airbnb and Booking.com however please contact us directly for our best rates.
