Itinerary

Day 1: Nallathanniya > Adam’s Peak

Stop At: Adam’s Peak (Sri pada), 22070 Sri Lanka
“Sri Paada” Peak Wilderness sanctuary is a natural reserve in Sri Lanka. It is the third largest (by area) of
the 50 sanctuaries in the country. “Sri Paada” Peak Wilderness sanctuary is a tropical rain forest that
spreads over a land of 224 square kilometers around the Sri Paada (Adam’s Peak) mountain. A huge
forest area that belonged to the Peak Wilderness was cut down and cleared during the British colonial
rule in Sri Lanka (1815-1948) to gain land for the massive tea estates which are still functioning in
Nuwara Eliya district. The remaining portion of the Peak Wilderness was declared a wildlife sanctuary on
October 25, 1940.
The contours of “Sri Paada” Peak Wilderness vary from 1000 to 7360 feet above sea level. Therefore, it
possesses unusual geographical formations compared to the other natural reserves of the island. Bena
Samanala (6579 ft), Dotalugala, Detanagala, is some of the tallest mountains in the Peak Wilderness.
