Pidurangala Rock

Pidurangala is a massive rock formation located a few kilometers north of Sigiriya in Sri Lanka. It has an interesting history closely related to that of the Sigiriya Rock Fortress. Climbing to the top of Pidurangala Rock is more strenuous than climbing Sigiriya. If you are fit and adventurous it is a climb worth making. It will take you about two hours. There is far less to see on this site than Sigiriya

This place is amazing, It is a 30 mins hike, some areas we had to climb rocks, it is not than hard but it is pretty fun, We enter thought a Buddhist temple area, so shoulders, knees should be covered, they provide a silk if you need it. The small temple is nice, with a very strong energy and beautiful painting in the rock wall. On the hiking there are many trees, kind of jungle, another reclining Buddha is close to the top, after the final and more challenging climb, there is an amazing view waiting for you, the impressive Lion rock is there. After you can go a little bit more up and have 360 view, very impressive. People go there for Sunrise and Sunset I bet would be stunning. Note: drones are not allowed.

I am horribly afraid of heights and climbing a 600ft rock was not at the top of my list for this holiday! However, it was amazing and takes about 1 hour to make the climb via some fantastic, ancient rock art and it is certainly worth the climb to discover the ruins of the most amazing palace. I am still afraid of heights but sometimes you just have to seize these opportunities.

Reviewed By 504amanb

One of my favourite sites in Sigiriya. Took a tuk tuk from our homestay a 15/20 min journey the final part over a bumpy road leading to a broken bridge where we parted ways from our driver. Its a few minute walk to a hut where we came across 2 locals. We were asked if we would like to be joined and shown around. We opted against this expecting a casual stroll. We got to the forgotten temple and took in the serenity amongst the ruins. One of the locals found us and started showing us around explaining the history and then our stroll became more adventurous. Although there are paths he took us off the paths showing us caves and rock structures where Buddhist monks stayed. The stroll became a bit more challenging but was definitely worth it. The serenity and peace was stunning the views amazing and we got to a point where our guide told us going any higher would become dangerous, so we came back down the black lake. I enjoyed every second of this and highly recommend it.
