Pidurangala Rock is an incredible 360-degree viewpoint located opposite the world-famous Sigiriya Lion Rock. Hiking to the top is possible for both of these rocks, but hiking at dawn to the top of Pidurangala Rock is a real adventure. Best of all, you get an incredible view of Lion’s Rock itself, which is really special! This is a moment that will stand out on any Sri Lanka trip, so a visit to Sigiriya is a must on your itinerary.

Experience the sunrise from the top of Pidurangala Rock where the first rays of light hit the surrounding landscape and the morning mist clears from the surrounding jungles. It’s a magical spot and moment that’s not to be missed in Sri Lanka. The large boulder, the highest point, has more than enough space for visitors to walk around and enjoy the scenery. Discover panoramic views across the valley and a unique perspective of Lion’s rock itself!
