Little Adam’s Peak

Sri Lanka Iconic Spot

About the Location

Panoramic views over Ella’s emerald valleys are rewarded to those who climb Little Adam’s Peak, a gentler alternative to its towering namesake. Tea estates are seen rolling endlessly toward the horizon, and misty mountains are watched changing colour with the rising sun. A well-marked trail is followed with ease by hikers of all levels, making the summit accessible within an hour. Breathtaking sunrise and sunset views are considered among the best in Sri Lanka’s hill country, earning this trek its place as a bucket-list favourite.
