adventure-Experiences

Day 2: Negombo, Sigiriya

Hike to Pidurangala rock to view the sunset

While the massive ancient rock of Sigiriya is steeped in history and is the main draw for tourists to the area of Dambulla, hiking to Pidurangala Rock to view the plains at sunset is a magical experience with a much more natural feel. The place was first used as a Buddhist monastery worshipped by King Kasyapa with many temples dating back to the third century BC, and now it offers a great adventure for all travelers. Located adjacent to Sigiriya Rock with the nearly same height, Pidurangala affords the best views of not only the valleys but also the famous historic fortress. The hike may take around 30 minutes to an hour to complete, with a well maintained up path and some parts of large rocks and boulders. At the beginning of the trail, you will find a white Buddhist temple, Pidurangala Sigiri Rajamaha Viharaya, where you must cover your shoulders, knees and remove your shoes. This is strictly enforced so you might want to prepare in advance. On the way, you will reach the Pidurangala Cave Temple, the remains of the ancient monastery with a quite well-preserved reclining Buddha statue laying inside. At the top of the rock, you can walk around and enjoy the rural Sri Lankan countryside as well as the inspiring Sigiriya Rock.

Explore the impressive Sigiriya Fortress

Sigiriya or Sinhagiri is an ancient rock fortress nearly 200 metres high from the central plains located in the northern Matale District of Sri Lanka, which is famous for its out of this world sight and significant archaeological importance. Meaning the Lion Rock and named a world heritage site by UNESCO, this rock is full of an ancient civilisation’s ruins, thought to be once the capital of the short-lived kingdom of Kassapa in the fifth century before abandoned and served as a Buddhist monastery until the 14th century. For the first look, the fortress is bounded by lush jungles and remains of lily-pad-covered moats, cave shrines and water gardens that are among the oldest landscaped gardens in the world. To reach the top, visitors have to follow the passageway between a giant pair of lion paws and climb a series of vertiginous staircases attached to sheer walls. On the way you’ll see exquisite frescoes depicting apsaras and dancers with offerings. The walkway will lead to the palace garden at the top where you can admire the geological masterpiece of ancient urban planning with ponds and terraces in the elaborate symmetrical design.

Day 3: Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa, Sigiriya

Take a tour around Polonnaruwa

Located about 200 kilometers from Colombo in North Central Province of Sri Lanka, Polonnaruwa was once a well-planned royal ancient city and thriving religious center of the eponymous kingdom some 800 years ago. The heyday of the medieval city can still be found in its archaeological park with hundreds of ancient treasures – palaces, pavilions, temples, stupas, ponds and irrigation lakes – that make it named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Among many temples and religious buildings, be sure you pay a visit to the massive Royal Palace, the Sacred Quadrangle with the Vatadage (the circular chamber of the relics), the Shiva Devale temples, the impressive Gal Vihara with four beautiful Buddha statues, and the vast irrigation lake called “Parakrama Samudraya” or the sea of Parakrama, built to collect rain water. The park itself is a delight to explore and a day tour around Polonnaruwa ancient city is certainly a highlight for those keen on uncovering the colorful tapestry of history and culture of Sri Lanka.

Situated around 150 kilometres east of Colombo, this cave monastery is also the largest and best-preserved cave temple complex in the country that has attracted a lot of pilgrims and visitors each year. Dating from the 1st century BC, the rock and caves tower 160 m over the plains with more than 80 documented caves in the grounds, of the major attractions are five cave shrines of varying size and magnificence under a vast overhanging rock. Inside these caves, you’ll find 157 statues of the Lord Buddha, and several statues of Sri Lankan kings and Hindu gods. The murals covering an area of 2,100 square metres are also of particular importance with stories about the Buddha and his life.

Climb up Adam’s Peak for sunrise watching

Situated in the southern reaches of the Central Highlands, the imposing Adam’s Peak at 2,243 meters is not only one of Sri Lanka’s most striking natural landmarks, but also an important pilgrimage site to several religions. People believe that the rock formation at its summit is the footprint of the Buddha, giving it well-known name the Sri Pada, or the “sacred footprint”. Many centuries later, Muslims claimed the footprint to be that of Shiva, while for the Christian faith, it belonged to St Thomas. For tourists, Adam’s Peak is a popular and picturesque hiking place for a breathtaking sunrise watching. There are 6 different trails to the summit, and the most favored routes are from Dalhousie aka Nallathanniya and Palabaddala. The climb is traditionally made by night with a mix of incline trekking and 5,000-6,000 crumbling stone steps, taking around 4 hours, and you will reach the top in time for dawn. The best time to hike is from January to May when the weather on the mountain is at its best and visitors can enjoy the extraordinary sunrise views free from cloud.

Admire one of the widest falls in Sri Lanka – Rawana Falls

Nestled in the misty mountains of tropical Sri Lanka, Rawana or Ravana Falls is a popular sightseeing attraction of Ella city, which is currently known as one of the widest waterfalls in the country. The waterfall cascades down a height of 82 feet from an oval-shaped concave rock outcrop, shaping an areca flower with withering petals during the wet season while the flow of water reduces dramatically in the dry season. Located inside the Ravana Ella Wildlife Sanctuary, this waterfall has been named after the legendary king Ravana in the famous Indian epic, the Ramayana. Legend has it that Ravana captured princess Sita and kept her in the caves behind this waterfall, which is now the Ravana Ella Cave. This cave is at the base of a cliff near the falls and becomes a historic site after excavations have revealed evidence of human habitation dating back to over 25,000 years ago.

Explore the wildlife at Yala National Park

Bordering the Indian Ocean and covering a large area of 979 square kilometres, Yala is the most visited and second largest national park in Sri Lanka where nature buffs can encounter Sri Lankan elephants, Sri Lankan leopards and aquatic birds. The park in nestled the southeast region of the country in a dry zone with five blocks, two of which are now open to the public. The ecosystems found in the park are wide-ranging, from marine wetlands to sandy beaches, rocky outcrops to moist monsoon forests and grasslands. This creates the immense biodiversity and great diversity of wildlife in one of the two first national parks in Sri Lanka. The jeep safaris or game drives in Yala are almost equivalent to Africa with plenty of wild animal spotting opportunities like wild boar, mongoose, spotted deer, crocodiles, and the infamous leopards if you’re lucky.

Day 8: Yala National Park, Colombo

Visit the famous Galle Dutch Fort

The Galle Fort, also known as the Dutch Fort or the Ramparts of Galle, is a beautiful Portuguese fortress in the Bay of Galle on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka. It was first built in 1588 by the Portuguese, then extensively reconstructed by the Dutch during the 17th century. After several hundreds of years, the fort still maintains a polished appearance that makes it named a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its fusion of European architecture and South Asian traditions. Being a charming old trafing port, this historic town is a delight to wander around, with rambling lanes of imposing Dutch-colonial buildings, grand mansions, ancient mosques, and quirky boutiques. Some of the important heritage landmarks and unmissable sights in the fort are the Dutch Reformed Church dating back to 1755, the Meera Mosque built in 1904, the Old Dutch Hospital, the All Saints Anglican Church built in 1871, the National Maritime Museum, and the 1939 Galle Lighthouse.

Day 6: Kandy

Take a visit to the most religiously significant place for Buddhists – Sri Dalada Maligawa

Walk around the Royal Botanic Gardens of Peradeniya

About 5.5 km to the west of Kandy City in the Central Province of Sri Lanka lies Peradeniya Botanic Gardens, stunning gardens noted for its rich and varied collections of tropical woody plants. They were once reserved gardens for Kandyan royalty, then in 1821 became botanical gardens by Alexandar Moon to introduce coffee trees and cinnamon plants to the region. In the late 1870s, the botanist George H.K. Thwaites brought in and cultivated the tea and Brazilian rubber tree, making it a centre for horticultural activities. Today, occupying 147 acres, the gardens include more than 4000 species of plants, including orchids, royal palms, spices, and medicinal plants. Another highlight is the giant Javan fig tree with its colossal umbrella-like canopy of branches, and a few historically prominent trees.

Day 7: Kandy, Pinnawala, Kandy

Get close to the elephants at Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage

Halfway between the commercial capital Colombo and the laidback UNESCO-protected town Kandy lies Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage, established in 1975 by the Sri Lanka Wildlife Department. The 25 acre coconut plantation adjacent to the Maha Oya River, just as the name suggests, is an orphanage, nursery and captive breeding ground for wild Asian elephants, situated northwest of Kegalle town, in Sabaragamuwa Province of Sri Lanka. It was originally founded to care and protect the many orphaned and injured wild elephants wandering in the forests of Sri Lanka. The main attraction for visitors to the park is clearly to observe the care and daily routine of the elephants, such as bottle feeding of elephant calves, feeding other elephants in their stalls, and bathing in the Ma Oya River.

Day 9: Nuwara Eliya, Bandarawela

Walk through Horton Plains National Park

Part of the World Heritage Site named The Central Highlands of Sri Lanka, along with the nearby Peak Wilderness Protected Area and the Knuckles Conservation Forest, Horton Plains National Park is undoubtedly a must for nature lovers and hiking adventure seekers. The region forms an undulating plateau over 2,100 meters above sea level, covered with Montane evergreen forests, wild grasslands, rocky outcrops, vast hills, and misty lakes, much of which remains grossly underexplored. A walk through the lush jungle of Horton Plains affords a great chance of exploring the abundant flora and fauna. Expect to see various tropical plants and a variety of wildlife such as monkeys, deer, elk and all kinds of birds. The natural trails of the park leads to a sudden end on the southern edge at World’s End Lookout, a stunning escarpment that falls sheer 900 meters. From here, visitors can take in the incredibly panoramic views over the green valley, and the early morning visit is recommended for clear views before the clouds roll in.

Day 10: Bandarawela, Udawalawa

Admire one of the widest falls in Sri Lanka – Rawana Falls

Explore Udawalawe National Park

Located 165 kilometres from Colombo in south-central sector of Sri Lanka, Udawalawe National Park is one of the world’s best places to see wild Asian Elephants throughout the year, with a herd of about 250 making the park their permanent home. This dry zone was declared as a 30,821-hectare national park in 1972, with the objective of providing a sanctuary for wild animals around the Udawalawe Reservoir, as well as to protect the catchment of the reservoir. As plains of thorny-shrub jungle and grasslands dominate the topography, though there are some mountain ranges in the north and central of the park, game spotting is much easier than other parks. Visitors can often see adult and baby elephants roaming the park in large herds, bathing and playing in the water in all their playfulness. Also, expect to encounter sambar deer, wild buffalo, mongooses, jackals, spotted deer, and wild boar. Besides, Udawalawe is also a good birdwatching site with 210 species at last count, which afford excellent opportunities for photography.
