Gregory Lake, Central Province, Sri Lanka

4.0 (1.755 reviews) Spent Ranking #9 in Nuwara Eliya Bodies of Water

Enchanting water body on highest point in Sri Lanka

We reached here on 29th March, 2022 and were crossing the lake when very soothing music made us stop. Groups of students were playing very pleasing tunes and were doing a sort of march past for some VIP Guests. We enjoyed their rythemic beats and cool breeze of Nuwara Eliya! Next was a boat ride in this lke. Took a motor boat, which took approx 20+ minutes for SL Rupees 5000/- and it too was a great experience.

    One of the top tourist attractions in Newerelia.
    This rather large lake in the hill station of Newerelia is a boating enthusiast 's bucket list of holiday activities. The lake is long, water is cold and clear with a number of pleasure boats to carry the tourists who flock to this hill station. The boats are moored in the rather crowded Pier. The day we visited Newerelia, the weather was dark, raining and cold. Naturally, the boating Pier was empty. Even the boat handlers were taking shelter inside the tea shop to escape the rain. A beautiful place to visit and enjoy nature with the family when the weather is good.

    Kicked out of Park for Riding Bikes Rented at Park???
    Lake was beautiful but the park really needs to figure their mess out. We were yelled at while walking in and made to pay while everyone else enjoyed freely. Only foreigners have to pay. Then we rented bikes from the park. We got on the other side of the lake to be yelled at by the park workers who made us then get off the trails with our bikes and walk on the road. We rented the bikes from the park to ride on the trail! On the other side of the lake they kick us out for riding bikes?! They really need to figure their mess out. We were basically the only foreigners here due to the crisis and were treated like absolute crap by the workers at this park. Horrible experience.
