Voyage of Ceylon

Ella Highland Adventure Tour

Ella is the hill country’s most beloved destination, and this active day tour covers its most rewarding highlights at a comfortable, enjoyable pace. The morning begins at the iconic Nine Arches Bridge – best seen in the early light as a train passes over the arch – before the trail climbs to Little Adam’s Peak for sweeping views across the entire Ella valley. The afternoon is flexible, allowing for a longer hike to Ella Rock for those wanting a challenge, or a relaxed afternoon in one of Ella’s charming mountain cafés.
