Kirigalpoththa

關於

Kirigalpoththa is the second-tallest mountain in Sri Lanka at 2,388 m (7,835 ft) above mean sea level, and is also the highest mountain in the country whose summit is accessible to the general public (the highest point, Pidurutalagala, is occupied by a military base and off-limits to the public). The peak is situated near the city of Nuwara Eliya, within the Nuwara Eliya District. Only one seven-kilometre (4+1⁄2-mile) hiking trail provides access to the mountain's summit via the Horton Plains National Park, although the trail is not very popular.
