Day : Wilpattu National Park
Explore the largest National Park in Sri Lanka – Wilpattu. Bordering three cities (Mannar, Anuradhapura and Puttalam), the park is about 130,000 hectares in size and also features massive coastlines of Sri Lanka. Natural fresh water lakes known as ‘Villus’ are what the park highlights as these are breeding spots for animals to drink and bathe. Wilpattu is open from 6.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. and is accessible by way of jeep safaris. February to October is the best time to visit the park but there is always a crowd
throughout the year.
For your day tour of Wilpattu National Park, you will be taken on a jeep safari around the park to spot Sri Lanka’s wild animals such as elephants, jackal, sloth bear, leopard, wild buffalo, spotted deer, mongoose and many other species. An experienced driver cum guide will take you along the routes that offer highest probability of sighting these animals. The villus is what the park gets its name from and these are where most of the sightings are said to occur.

Amazing Safari Experience
This was a fantastic visit for my first ever safari experience. From our jeep with our guide we spotted elephants, leopards, bears and a whole lot more. The park is huge so there are occasionally long spells of driving (but great fun on the tracks) and being in the back of a safari jeep, the place gets HOT during the day. You have to have the attitude of being patient – the happier you are to sit and wait, the more you will see.
