Full moon pilgrimage up the sacred mountain – Adam’s Peak

About this activity

Climb the island’s fourth highest peak. Legend has it that the footprint indented in the rock at the summit of this verdant conical mountain was made by the Buddha, on his third and final visit to the island. Muslims believe it is the spot where Adam first set foot on earth after being banished from the Garden of Eden. Christians believe it belongs to St. Thomas the Apostle, whilst to the Hindus, the footprint belongs to Lord Shiva. An experienced naturalist guide will keep you company and support you on this trek to Adam’s Peak.
