Wilpattu National Park – Half Day Safari from Anuradhapura

From: 76$

Wilpattu National Park is located about 40 kilometers away from Anuradhapura. Sightings of leopards and elephants are not as frequent as in Yala. But this largest National Park is a quite unique one. Animals roam freely and no huge traffic jam of safari jeeps like in Yala.

The name "Wil (ponds) pattu (terrain)" derived from the spread of small and large ponds inside the park. This National Park is bit greener than Yala National Park. And you can see taller trees as well. Unlike Yala National Park, visitors can cross to the end of Wilpattu National Park. The whole day safari is recommended for the best sightings. March to October, less rainy season, is better for safari.
