Big Game Wilpattu by Eco Team<\/h1>\r\n

On the edge of a lake and surrounded by bush woodland, the campsite is situated closer to the Wilpattu National Park’s southern limit.<\/h5>\r\n

It takes just 5 to 10 minutes to travel the short 7 kilometres between the park entrance and the campsite.<\/p>\r\n

The Wilpattu National Park is well-known for housing populations of Sri Lankan Leopards, Elephants, Sloth Bears, and a variety of other animals, all of which are supported by an abundant undisturbed environment. This comfortable and well managed camp site is only 500 metres from the park’s perimeter. Your hosts take pleasure in offering individualised service and paying great attention to every detail. Big Game Camp Safaris are always some of the best highlights of a Sri Lankan vacation.<\/p>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0″ padding_bottom=”100″ class=”image-conetent-block”][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_class=”left-image”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”10279″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]\r\n

Why do we love Big Game Wilpattu?<\/h2>\r\nWe do love Big Game Camp Wilpattu because its near Sri Lanka’s oldest and biggest National Park, Wilpattu, famous for leopards, elephants and sloth bears, and also a perfect stopover for many migratory birds such as the Asian paradise flycatcher male, Orange-headed thrush, Blue-tailed bee-eater among others. The campground itself is near the lake making it a magical destination.\r\n\r\nBig Game campsites are specifically designed for the budget-conscious traveller.
