There is a twisting tarred road that takes you to the top, and there is a steep route too, with steps engraved on the rock itself. I took these images on the way to the top along the tarred road.

Wondering In Kurunegala 2, Getting To The Top Of Ethugala Rock
This post is from my visit to the Ethugala rock on 20/06/2010. This place is of historical, ecological, and cultural importance. The kind of wildlife I've observed there will be available on my wildlife blog soon. Ethugala is very closely associated with the ancient era when Kurunegala was the Capital. That era starts from the year 1293 according to the resources. Actually the history of Kurunegala stretches back way beyond that, but I need to do a lot of studies before going in to it any deeper.

These I took from various spots on the top.
