Itinerary description

From Ella, follow the train track, then go down at a little restaurant/shop and follow the tracks. Be careful to the leeches.
After Ella's rock view point (if it is not too cloudy) there is Temple cave at 400m. Then follow the tracks to the train station of Helloya where you can have a tea ;)
after Heeloya station you can see that there are butt end ways on my tracks, it is because I was searching a "green" way but unfortunately didn't find it, so don't follow this 2 butt end tracks.

    Very nice hike. 1/3 through beautiful forests, 2/3 along paved roads through villages with moderate traffic.
