The other route is to take the Kurunegala-Dambulla road to Ibbagamuwa and from there take the Madagalla road and get off at Godagala junction. Then you can travel through the village of Doluwa to Dolukanda through a beautiful paddy field.

Dolukanda is considered to be the site of Lord Weeramunda and is a place of historical and archaeological value. Dolukanda which is designated as a reserve is under the Forest Department. It is important that you climb Dolukanda with a special permit from the Forest Department. It is also important to inform the Thero of the Dolukanda Temple as the Dolukanda Climb should start through the Dolukanda Temple. You will also find a guide to climb Dolukanda.

While climbing Dolukanda you will see a lot of gum on the way. There are also huge russet trees and large herbaceous plants. Among these are rare herbs called Gardi Raja. It is noteworthy that the herb grows on another plant. At the same time, the black stone ruins can be seen along the way as evidence that there were buildings. Many treasures can be seen being destroyed by thieves.

Along the way, there are gushing springs that overflow the roots of the rocky outcrop. That water is even suitable for drinking. If you go up and run out of water you can get water from this spring. This is because there is no drinking water at the top of Dolukanda.
