Wilpattu

Wilpattu National Park is Sri Lanka’s largest and one of its most scenic wildlife reserves, renowned for its natural lakes, dense forests, and abundant biodiversity. Unlike many other parks, Wilpattu’s landscape is shaped by unique natural water basins known as “villus,” creating rich ecosystems that attract elephants, leopards, sloth bears, deer, crocodiles, and a wide variety of bird species.
Safaris through Wilpattu offer a peaceful yet thrilling wildlife experience, with fewer crowds and a strong sense of wilderness. The park is perfect for nature lovers, wildlife photographers, and travellers seeking authentic encounters with Sri Lanka’s untamed natural beauty.
