Horton Plains National Park

World's End loop in Horton Plains Sri Lanka's high grassland plateau stops abruptly at World's End, a cliff with a sheer drop of more than half a mile and views over tea plantations toward the distant Indian Ocean. The usual loop is about 6 miles and takes in Baker's Falls on the way. Timing decides everything: arrive before 10 a.m., because cloud tends to close in after that, especially in the monsoon months from April to September, and then the view disappears entirely.
