The visit

See Pidurangala without changing hotels.

Pidurangala is the sunrise hike opposite Sigiriya. The path is rocky in places and ends on a slab of stone with a direct view of the fortress and the forest canopy below.

We keep the outing private so the start time can match first light, your fitness and whether you want to continue to breakfast, a village tour or a morning native tour.

It is one of the best add-ons for guests who want a landscape moment before the parks open and the day gets hot.
