DISCOVER THE TRUE SPIRIT OF THE WILD
At Yala Wild Trail, every safari is more than a journey—it’s an opportunity to witness nature at its finest. From elusive leopards and majestic elephants to breathtaking landscapes and vibrant birdlife, our expertly guided adventures offer an unforgettable glimpse into Sri Lanka’s most celebrated wilderness.
Yala
is a renowned national park in the south of Sri Lanka
A hotspot for Elephants and Leopards
Yala National Park is located in the southeast of Sri Lanka.
Along with several neighbouring and adjoining reserves, this area represents the largest conservation area in the country, extending over 979 sq km (378 sq mi) and with around 60km (36 miles) of ocean beaches.
The landscape is largely comprised of undulating plains, covered by a mix of moist monsoon forests and dry woodlands, punctuated by small open grasslands, rocky outcrops and occasional waterholes. Along the coast there are extensive marine wetlands and patches of mangrove forest.
Mammal species in Yala are headlined by Sri Lankan elephants, Sri Lankan leopards and Sri Lankan sloth bears, with a supporting cast of fishing cats, jackals, golden palm civets, red slender lorises, water buffalos, spotted deers and toque macaque monkeys.
The reserve is perhaps best known for its leopards, which are here in relatively high densities, although their total numbers probably only add up to a few dozen. They are slightly smaller than African leopards and usually have a darker coat with a tiger spot pattern. Although they can be elusive, they do love to sunbathe on various rocky outcrops.

Lunugamwehera
is a beautiful national park in the southern region of Sri Lanka.
A Haven for Elephants and Wildlife
Lunugamvehera National Park is located in the southeastern region of Sri Lanka, serving as an important wildlife corridor between Yala and Udawalawe national parks.
Spanning a vast dry zone landscape, the park plays a crucial role in elephant conservation and biodiversity protection. It forms part of the greater Yala ecosystem and helps maintain natural migration routes for wildlife across the region.
The terrain is mainly composed of dry monsoon forests, scrublands, grasslands, and scattered water reservoirs, including the Lunugamvehera Reservoir which supports both wildlife and birdlife throughout the year.
Mammal species in Lunugamvehera are dominated by large herds of Sri Lankan elephants, along with spotted deer, wild boar, jackals, sloth bears, and water buffalo. The park is also home to a rich variety of bird species, making it a rewarding destination for birdwatchers and nature lovers.
Unlike Yala, Lunugamvehera is less crowded and offers a quieter, more peaceful safari experience, where visitors can observe wildlife in a more natural and undisturbed environment.
