Getting oriented in town

Uda Pussellawa has fruit stalls, small supermarkets, a bank, and a pharmacy.

Landscape and regional route

Stage 21 follows tea paths through valleys, tea fields, and vegetable plots, and passes tea factories. In the wider region, it runs through Gordon Estate, which lies on the border between Central Province and Uva Province. The stage is therefore described by more than its starting point: tea paths, fields, and tea factories characterize the route, while the provincial border marks the estate’s regional location. If you choose a hike based on landscape features, these details can provide helpful orientation. They refer to the course of Stage 21 in the wider area, not just to the starting point.
