What to wear to climb Sigiriya?

The climbing of Sigiriya Rock requires climbers to wear both comfortable clothing and mountaineering gear. It is better to choose moisture-wicking clothing which provides protection against rain. The stairs reach dangerous heights therefore it is best to choose a dress which extends to the thighs since this design allows for stair climbing without exposing your lower waist to people who are below you. You need to wear strong shoes which provide protection during your walk because the path contains dangerous slippery sections. The afternoon hike requires you to bring sunglasses and hats and sunscreen for protection. You can bring a camera or binoculars if you want to do so.
