Day 01 in Sigiriya

Ideal for the nature lover, the first day you will proceed form the airport to Sigiriya and en route you will make a stop at the Dambulla Cave Temple which is full of paintings and small statues depicting its history. Then you will head towards the hotel which is an Eco friendly lodge in Dehigala Ela.

Arrive at Colombo International Airport at TBA hrs. Here, you will be met by a designated chauffer guide from Lakpura Travels. After the formalities at the airport you will be escorted to your air-conditioned Car and proceed to Sigiriya. (Travel Time: 3 to 4 Hrs)

Dambulla Cave Temples

Enter the historic caves of the Golden Temple of Dambulla, dating back to the 1st century BC. View the ancient murals depicting the life story of Lord Gautama Buddha. Look at the hundreds of figurines of Buddha and other deities scattered throughout the five main caves. Visit the Cave of the Divine King, Cave of the Great King and the Great New Monastery. See the giant golden Buddha Statue just a little distance outside the cave complex.

Back of Beyond - Wild Haven, Dehigaha Ela

A network of red earth roads takes you deep into isolation as chena cultivation blends with high grass and thick forests. It is here that we discovered an abandoned paddy field that had become a delicate green of illuk grass; a circular clearing at the base of a hill, ringed by thick forest on the sweeping curve of two streams. A small secret place for all forms of wildlife - elephants, sambhur, birds and butterflies - to visit.

Day 02 in Sigiriya

Your entire day will be spent at the Wild Haven in Dehigala Ela which is dedicated to offer an eco friendly holiday that you will never forget. From cycling tours to bird watching, walks along chena farms, streams, boulders and caves to enjoying a dip in a natural pool that is along
the stream - you will love it.

Dehigaha Ela Eco Lodge

Trek along the stream and have dip in the natural pools This, without doubt, is the favourite activity of visitors to Dehigaha Ela Eco Lodge. The cold and sparkling Dehigaha Ela stream falls into the murky warm Kiri Oya River at the edge of the lodge. Let the tumbling water massage you, allow the cheeky fish nibble at your toes, or just disappear in to the cool pools of water.

Day 03 in Sigiriya

The 3rd and final day, you will head to explore the Sigiriya Rock Fortress which is a World Heritage Site and a historical masterpiece. Standing nearly 200 meters in height, this massive rock fortress still has ruins of the palace on its pinnacle while there are wall paintings and beautifully landscaped gardens that you can explore.

Sigiriya Rock Fortress

Climb the 5th century AD rock fortress, Sigiriya, where the King Kasyapa ruled. Walk through the entrance framed by the paws of a lion that is quite appropriate for its name, 'The Lion Rock'. View the beautiful unfading murals that brought Sigiriya its fame. Climb the steep staircase to see the terraced gardens and still-working cisterns. Walk through the tunnels leading to the palace as you get a feel for times long past.
