Lake Gregory

EXPLORE

Lake Gregory

Located in the heart of the Nuwara Eliya town, Lake Gregory Park is idyllic on sunny picnic mornings, for paddle boat rides, pony trots, long leisurely walks, and even water sporting adventures such as jet skiing. The Park has plenty of food stalls, cafes to pick up nibbles, and long paved walkways to work up an appetite. It is also a landing location for Air Taxi service which provides scenic domestic flights, transporting travellers in just 30 minutes to the city of Colombo. None of which reflects the lake’s intended purpose when built in 1873 by the British to generate electricity.
