The Elephant Freedom Project was the first stop in my 10 days in Sri Lanka, and it was the best thing I could have started with! Everything, from the lovely driver who collected me from Negombo - and stopped along the way to get fresh coconuts, to the incredible hosting family and amazing experience with Kumari the elephant, exceeded expectations. Everyone involved in the project is so respectful of the welfare of Kumari and it was beautiful to be able to spend time with an elephant whilst her keeper (the lovely Kumar) was taking her through her daily cleaning, walking and feeding - rather than seeing an elephant be forced to take rides and be in chains. The coordinator Kasun was also so helpful and informative (plus a great photographer) and I learned so much about Kumari along the way. As a solo traveler, I felt so welcomed as part of the family and highly recommend staying the night - even just for the AMAZING food prepared & lovely company of Ananda, Mali and Shashini. Absolute highlight of my trip to Sri Lanka!!

We had a really great Safari with these guys. The driver was able to show us all the different animals one can see in Udawalawe National Park and could also explain us a lot about them. Other jeeps around us would just stop for a minute wherever we spotted animals, while he had the patience to stay longer giving us plenty of time to take photos and video. Also thanks to waiting a while at most stops, the elephants ended up coming very close to us.

Adam's Peak (Sri pada)

This 7,300 foot tall mountain in the jungle of Sri Lanka is sacred to several different religions!

Reviewed By kelum - Kandy District, Sri Lanka

Most prefer to do the 3 hour hike at night up the longest staircase in the world,according to Arthur C Clarke.The path is paved and perfectly maintained so even a senior citizen wouldn't find too much difficulty in reaching the summit with some help. If the climb begins at 10 pm its perfectly possible to find few hours of sleep at the top before the sunrise .Wonder is not just in the sunrise .,its on the opposite side when the perfectly conical shadow of the sacred mountain spreads across the western mountains and valleys.for about few minutes. Climb down is easier with 'base camp' attainable in under 2 hours. A morning ascent is another option which is ideal for scenery sake.Best to begin the trek as early as possible so you would find decent solitude along much of the way until the pilgrims who climbed the night before start to appear out of the mist after 9 in the morning. Visibility up top could be shrouded in mist in most of the months so patience is needed to take a peek at the vista between clouds banks which roll in. The most exhilarating of the climbs would be the attempts done in off season ,between May and December ,much of which falling under the rainy season in the peak wilderness .This climb requires some planning as the rains in better part of the day may bring in cascades all along the route ,as well as down the staircase now turned in to a veritable water slide. Strategy should be to be clear of the mountain before 5 pm as the denizens of the forest would venture out by then.Summit would be occupied by few monks who would depend on weekly supplies from the town below .You may meet the post man who climbs the mountain each day and that would be the only human soul along the route unless there happen to be few others crazy as you. shoes need strong traction /water abundant in many creeks / warm drink in a flask /plenty carb/ biscuits /chocolates./Camera would be a burden unless well protected /clothes ready for a decent dunking /stick to the path ,don't venture out .Keep phone contact with the base in case .Best to report to police station before the climb and make sure to tell them when you come back. Difficulty level in an off season climb is high due to the high possibility of slipping on the concrete steps.
