Known as the “Land of Lakes,” Wilpattu is Sri Lanka’s largest and oldest national park, characterised by its unique natural water basins or villus. This park offers a more secluded and tranquil safari experience, where the dense dry-zone jungle provides a dramatic backdrop for spotting the elusive Sri Lankan leopard and sloth bear. It is a destination for the true wilderness enthusiast who values the silence of the forest as much as the sighting of its inhabitants.
