Overview
Leave the coast behind and journey inland through the wilderness of Yala Block 5 and Lunugamvehera National Park, where misty lakes and distant mountains cradle the wild. Far from the crowded trails of Yala Block 1, this peaceful route reveals nature’s rhythm as leopards roam freely, elephants bathe in still waters, and birds echo across forest.
The adventure begins with pickup from Galle, Mirissa, Dickwella, Tangalle, or any southern coastal town, traveling inland through scenic countryside to Lunugamvehera, where open lakes and forest edges create perfect habitats. Continue into Yala Block 5, with safaris offered at sunrise, morning, and afternoon—each revealing a different mood of the wild. Guided by a wildlife expert.
Enjoy a packed homemade breakfast or evening snack. On private or sunrise safaris, receive a signature wildlife photo collection captured by our crew — complimentary. Seamless transfer continues to Ella, completing a journey where comfort, discovery and nature meet.

Discover a quieter side of Yala at Yala Block 5, where forest and open plains blend seamlessly into prime leopard territory. This remote sector offers remarkable wildlife diversity without the chaos of crowded jeep trails. Many travelers consider this the best spot in Sri Lanka for close yet respectful leopard encounters.
