Hey machanla,
Let's do something fun – if you own a Defender, you know the joy of finding a quiet gravel trail, a forest road, or a misty mountain path. Let's make a thread where we all drop our favourite scenic routes to drive in SL.

Mine:

Horton Plains via Boralanda – early morning drive with mist, cows, and no traffic.
Mahiyanganaya to Hasalaka – remote, peaceful, and full of character.
Wilgamuwa side trails – amazing if you like elephants and dry jungle roads.

Let's share and maybe someday we can do a Defender meet-up and drive one of these together!

Great idea bro! My fav is the road from Loolcondera to Galaha – full of bends, surrounded by tea, and no one ever honks at you.

Also, try the gravel road from Kuda Oya to Wellawaya through the jungle stretch – pure safari vibes.

And if we're doing a meetup, count me in. Imagine 15–20 Defenders crawling up to Lipton's Seat together – what a scene that would be!
