Adam's Peak (Sri Pada)

The sacred footprint. Adam's Peak (2,243m) is one of often regarded as one of the most significant pilgrimage sites. At its summit lies a rock formation believed by Buddhists to be the footprint of Buddha, by Hindus as that of Shiva, and by Christians and Muslims as that of Adam. The climb is not a wilderness hike but a cultural marathon of roughly 5,200 concrete and stone steps. The journey is typically undertaken at night, joined by thousands of local pilgrims dressed in white, walking up the illuminated staircase through the mist to witness the spectacular sunrise from the top.

The Great Ocean Walk is a 104km point-to-point coastal trekking route in Victoria, Australia. Connecting Apollo Bay to the Twelve Apostles, the trail follows the Shipwreck Coast within the Great Otway National Park. The route traverses mixed terrain including Mountain Ash forests, coastal heathland, and tidal beaches. It serves as a terrestrial alternative to the Great Ocean Road, providing access to remote cliff-top vantage points above the Southern Ocean. Surface composition consists of managed forest tracks, purpose-built boardwalks, and segments of uncompacted sand and rocky littoral platforms.
