A day trip from Maskeliya today will take you to Adam's Peak, one of the tallest and most sacred mountains in Sri Lanka - depending on what religion you follow! There are a lot of discrepancies about this mountain, some say it is the footprint of Buddham, some say it is Lord Shiva, and others say it is Adam! You'll spend the day trekking at a leisurely pace to reach the peak, where you'll have panoramic views of the mountains. Return to your resort at the end of your trek.
