Sri Lanka’s largest national park, Wilpattu, is a vast primeval wilderness of dense scrub jungle dotted with distinctive natural lakes that draw remarkable concentrations of wildlife to their shores. Renowned globally for elusive leopard sightings, the park also shelters elephants, sloth bears, crocodiles and birdlife. Refreshingly low visitor numbers create an undisturbed wilderness atmosphere, making Wilpattu a rewarding destination for wildlife enthusiasts.
