The hill country has a cooler climate than coastal areas, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 20°C (50°F to 68°F). Mornings and evenings can be quite cool, especially in Nuwara Eliya. It's advisable to bring warm clothing, including layers, jackets, and comfortable walking shoes. Rainfall can occur throughout the year, so a light waterproof jacket is recommended.

The hikes in this tour are rated as moderate. Little Adam's Peak is an easy 1-2 hour round trip with well-defined paths. Ella Rock is more challenging, taking 3-4 hours round trip with some steep sections. The Horton Plains hike is approximately 9km (5.6 miles) on relatively flat terrain but at high altitude. All hikes can be adjusted based on your fitness level, and our guides will ensure a pace that's comfortable for you.

We recommend layered clothing for changeable weather, including warm layers, waterproof jacket, comfortable hiking shoes, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, reusable water bottle, daypack for hikes, camera, and any personal medications. The key is to be prepared for cool temperatures, potential rain, and lots of walking.

While Sri Lanka's hill country reaches elevations up to 2,500 meters (8,200 ft), altitude sickness is generally not a significant concern for most travelers. However, some people might experience mild symptoms like shortness of breath during hikes. We recommend taking it easy for the first day, staying hydrated, and informing your guide if you feel unwell. Our itineraries are designed to acclimatize gradually.
