Wasgamuwa National Park, nestled between the Central and North Central Provinces near Matale and Polonnaruwa, is one of Sri Lanka’s most serene and biodiverse wildlife reserves. Known for its large elephant populations, sloth bears, and a wide variety of endemic birds, the park offers a rich and unspoiled safari experience. Travelers can explore rugged jeep trails, ancient water systems, and forgotten ruins hidden deep within its lush landscapes. Wasgamuwa is less commercialized than other parks, making it ideal for those seeking raw, authentic encounters with nature. It’s a peaceful haven where the rhythm of the wild remains untouched by time.
