Hill-country ridges around Ella at first light, the setting for sunrise hikes

Ella · guided sunrise hikes

Wake up before the island does.

Two sunrise walks from Ella. Little Adam’s Peak if you want the view without a long climb. Ella Rock if you want a proper hike. A local guide, pickup, breakfast and tea come with both.

Questions

What is the difference between Little Adam’s Peak and Ella Rock?+

Little Adam’s Peak is the easier, shorter sunrise walk and suits more travellers. Ella Rock is longer and more challenging — better if you want a proper hike. Both include a local guide, hotel pickup and drop-off around Ella, a simple breakfast, tea or coffee, and a drinking-water bottle.

Is sunrise guaranteed?+

No. We start for sunrise, but visibility depends on weather. Hill country cloud can sit on the ridge. The walk and the views still happen; the sky is not something we can promise.

How does the group discount work?+

If two or more guests book the same sunrise hike together, each guest receives 30% off that hike’s per-person price. Little Adam’s Peak is USD 19, Ella Rock is USD 24, before the group rate.
