    Tips

    September 1, 2019

    From the top of the Pidurangala rock you have on one side a magnificent view of the Sigiriya rock, which is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. On the other side, the view sweeps over huge forest areas all the way to the Minneriya Reservoir. The climb starts at the temple below and there is also required the entry of 500 LKR. The best time to climb is before sunrise or sunset. In the twilight good slip resistance is required and sturdy footwear. There is a stepped path that becomes a climbing path just before the summit.

      The climbing section is not too difficult. Don't forget mosquito spray.
