Directions

Escape the crowds and discover a wilder side of Sri Lanka at Kumana National Park, a haven for birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts. You'll feel a sense of true exploration as your jeep navigates the tranquil trails, far less traveled than those in neighboring Yala. The park is renowned for its incredible birdlife, especially around the 'Kumana Villu' swamp where thousands of birds migrate to nest. Keep your eyes peeled for elephants, crocodiles, and with a bit of luck, the elusive leopard that roams this beautiful landscape.
