At Victoria Golf Resort, a golf course, an academy, and excursions in nature come together; Tamarind Gardens offers overnight guests an experience that includes cooking and connecting with locals. What would you like to focus on during your trip?

Golf: Course and Training

The golf club at Victoria Golf Resort in Digana has an 18-hole championship course. After learning the basics, the Victoria Golf Academy offers practice on specially designed practice areas and under simulated conditions. It also offers golf lessons and training camps for players of all skill levels with professional golf coaches. This lets you choose between a round on the championship course, focused practice and lessons, or a training camp as different ways to make golf the focus of your stay. Confirm the current availability of the academy’s offerings directly with the operator.

Trails Along the River and Through the Forest

The Mahaweli Trail runs along an arm of the Mahaweli River in the Victoria Reservoir. The trails are close to the resort grounds; the route along the river arm offers a different focus from the golf course and training options.

The Araliya Trail is three kilometers long and follows the edge of the golf course into secondary forest. This excursion for resort guests leads to a clearing with the “Aralia Deck” viewpoint. The trails therefore differ in their main features: the Mahaweli Trail’s route along the river arm, or the Araliya Trail’s specific length, forest section, and viewpoint.

Victoria Nature Treks are trekking excursions offered by the resort for guests interested in nature and outdoor activities. If you would like information about guided tours, ask at the resort reception.

A Local Experience at Tamarind Gardens

For overnight guests at Tamarind Gardens, “Live Like a Local” includes connecting with local people in Digana and cooking Sri Lankan dishes with fresh ingredients. The experience is tied to a stay at Tamarind Gardens; its availability may depend on the operator. If you would like to plan it specifically, confirm the options with Tamarind Gardens in advance.

Pettigala as a Hiking Option in the Wider Area

From Babaragala, the walk to Pettigala is about two kilometers. This distance refers to the route between these two places and gives you a specific reference point for planning your hike.

Consider Activities When Choosing Accommodation

If golf lessons, Victoria Nature Treks, or the cooking experience at Tamarind Gardens will influence your decision, confirm availability or arrangements directly with the relevant provider. This lets you tailor your stay to the specific offering rather than choosing based only on a general interest in golf or nature.
