Itinerary

Day 1 · Nallathanniya > Adam's Peak

  1. Sri Pada / Adam's Peak

    5 hours

    "Sri Paada" Peak Wilderness sanctuary is a natural reserve in Sri Lanka. It is the third largest (by area) of

    the 50 sanctuaries in the country. "Sri Paada" Peak Wilderness sanctuary is a tropical rain forest that

    spreads over a land of 224 square kilometers around the Sri Paada (Adam's Peak) mountain. A huge

    forest area that belonged to the Peak Wilderness was cut down and cleared during the British colonial

    rule in Sri Lanka (1815-1948) to gain land for the massive tea estates which are still functioning in

    Nuwara Eliya district. The remaining portion of the Peak Wilderness was declared a wildlife sanctuary on

    October 25, 1940.

    The contours of "Sri Paada" Peak Wilderness vary from 1000 to 7360 feet above sea level. Therefore, it

    possesses unusual geographical formations compared to the other natural reserves of the island. Bena

    Samanala (6579 ft), Dotalugala, Detanagala, is some of the tallest mountains in the Peak Wilderness.

Day 2 · Adam's Peak > Nallathanniya

  1. Sri Pada / Adam's Peak

    5 hours

    Your route will be via Hatton (Hatton – Nallathanniya) and to climb down via Murray estate. Murray

    estate borders the peak wilderness sanctuary. It is one of the best hideouts in Sri Lanka which

    surrounds evergreen forests on the edge of the reserve.
