Yala National Park - Sri Lanka

Ruhuna National park or more affectionately known as Yala National Park, has been the most celebrated wildlife park in Sri Lanka for over a century. Yala is an ideal place to spot the ‘big four’ of Sri Lankan wildlife, the elephants, the sloth bear, the elusive leopard and the wild buffalo.‘Yala’ is the most prominent National Park in Sri Lanka with the highest density of leopard and many other wild animals.

‘Bundala’ and ‘Udawalawa’ are other Wildlife Sanctuaries situated in close proximity with Yala while ‘Lunugamwehera’ is a part of Yala National Park. The wilderness area gives nature lovers a wide range of everlasting experience and memories.

A pair of binoculars is definitely recommended for getting close-up views of animals. Please do not litter, shout, take anything from the park or disturb the animals any way.
