Join the Movement to Preserve Sri Lanka’s Premier Hiking Trail

Please show your support for this epic fundraising hike for The Pekoe Trail Organisation (TPTO).

This hike aims to spotlight The Pekoe Trail Organization (TPTO), the dedicated nonprofit steward entrusted with maintaining and promoting The Pekoe Trail as a world-class long-distance hiking trail and a premier national tourism asset for Sri Lanka.

Stretching 300 kilometers across diverse and breathtaking landscapes, The Pekoe Trail requires constant care to preserve its beauty, accessibility, and impact. Currently, TPTO operates entirely on self-funding, relying heavily on community support through memberships and donations to sustain its mission.

By undertaking this high-profile hike, we hope to raise awareness of TPTO’s vital work and inspire the hiking community to actively support the trail’s preservation. Together, we can ensure that The Pekoe Trail continues to enrich the lives of today’s adventurers and remains a legacy for generations to come.
