Climb Adam's Peak -- one of the most famous mountains in the world -- in the company of one of our trail guides. There is probably no mountain anywhere more famous than Sri Pada - Adam's Peak (7362 ft/2250m) for reasons that are cultural and spiritual. It is sacred to three religions at least; to Buddhists, Muslims and Hindus. The mountain is signified by a large depression on the summit that resembles a “foot” to which all three religions draw significance. The climb takes approximately three and a half hours (the way is paved with steps) and the trail is flanked by the Peak Wilderness Sanctuary – one of Sri Lanka’s highest protected forest reserves. Views from the top are stunning, especially early in the morning as the warmth of dawn lights up the country in an endless vista of forests, valleys, mountains and lakes.
