Sigiriya Rock Fortress - Sunrise Climb
Duration:
- 3-4 hrs
Fitness level (1-5):
- 3/5 - moderate, approximately 1,200 steps
The correct way to experience Sigiriya is before the gates open. The 5th-century water gardens in half-light, the Mirror Wall, the cloud-maiden frescoes and the summit view as the light breaks across the Cultural Triangle.
