WILPATTU NATIONAL PARK SAFARI
CAMP
|
WILPATTU NATIONAL PARK is located 26 km north of Puttalam (approximately
180 km north of Colombo), spanning an area that runs inland from the
northwest coast towards the ancient capital of Anuradhapura (50 km to
the east of the park). Covering an impressive 425 sq miles, the park
is Sri Lanka's largest. Having reopened in 2003 it is now an increasingly
popular eco-tourism destination. Wilpattu is a fairly thick dry zone
jungle interspersed with a number of flood plain lakes banked with delicate
white sands. It boasts an impressive variety of flora in huge expanses
of forest, and varied wildlife, including deer, elephants, wild boar,
sloth bears and leopards.

The five locations for the SAFARI CAMP in Wilpattu are all
in excellent areas for observing the park's varied wildlife from the
camp itself. Forget any ideas about cramped tents and sitting on the
ground for meals this is camping in style! The camp is set up prior
to your arrival, transporting in comfortable tents, a fully equipped
kitchen, chairs and tables, hammocks, flushable toilets, showers and
even cold beer . In the evening you can enjoy a hearty barbecue meal
in a magical setting the whole area is lit up with traditional flame
torches and a roaring campfire. So sit back, relax and let our experienced
staff cater to your every need.
