Yasiru AbeygunawardanaSeptember 21, 2014Awesome views at top. Once u reach the top there is a relatively harder hike to your left to the other hill which is close by. Try it if u can

Michael ThelinFebruary 10, 2016Comfortable walk up to the top, and there's no doubt if the view is worthy of the 1-2 hours it takes to get there and back from Ella's main road. Plenty of places at the top to have a picnic.Upvote3Downvote
Vajindra WijewickramaDecember 11, 2018Moderate hike. Even people with mid ages can also visit. Remember there are steps towards the hill top. Can manage Up and down within 2 hours. A big thumbs up

Richard BurkhillJuly 16, 2024The path is very easy to follow at the start, with fairly significant steps. You can then continue to the actual top of Little Adam's Peak. View of Ella Rock are absolutely breathtaking.

TinoSeptember 2, 2014Start at seven a.m. latest to be the first one on top. Afterwards too touristic. But still absolutely stunning views.

Stephanie ChooDecember 12, 2015The hike up was very refreshing and had a nice view of ella rock and ella gap. Go up early to see the sunrise but it can get foggy and rainy in the morning. Ella's weather is unpredictableUpvote1Downvote
ValeriyaSeptember 14, 2018Liked this place, not hard to reach and view is absolutely amazing. Btw, there's a guy who sells coconuts on the top 😉Upvote1Downvote- Melanie HardcastleFebruary 18, 2017Go at sunset. Easy hike, mostly dirt path with stairs at the top.
Upvote1Downvote - Simone BernasconiSeptember 16, 2017The hike is relatively easy. Don't stop at the first peak you reach but proceed to the second one right in front of you. 5 mins walk. It's worth the little more effort you ll make :)UpvoteDownvote
- Tomáš MinarikMarch 7, 2016Beautiful sunrise. Especially the view on Ella rock is awesome. Must see!

Gilles SuprinMarch 9, 2018Short and cool hike among the tea fields. Please don't throw your garbages on the way up. The path becomes really dirty because of the tourists. Thank you.UpvoteDownvote
Andreas HolzapfelNovember 6, 2017Highly recommended little hike. Check the way first as signs seem to have gotten lost somehow...

"The walk to get to the top has a good combination of nature and local life. Views at the top are really nice."
Andres 
"It’s really touristy and while still has a lot of the Sri Lankan style, it also has a lot of westernized places. The walk via the railway tracks to the 9 arch bridge is definitely the best to do."
