Horton Plains & World's End
A cloud plateau that ends, without warning, in a cliff.
The feeling
Walk out through dwarf forest and open grassland while the mist still clings, and the plain ends at World's End — an 870-metre drop that appears out of nowhere. Come early; by mid-morning the view is already gone into cloud.
