Description complète
Udawalawe se trouve a deux heures et demie a l'interieur des terres depuis la bande cotiere de Galle a Mirissa, et c'est le parc a prendre depuis la cote si vous voulez vraiment voir des animaux plutot que l'esperer.
La raison est le terrain. Udawalawe a ete cree en 1972 autour d'un nouveau reservoir, et les terres agricoles inondees sont devenues une prairie ouverte. Il n'y a nulle part pour un elephant de se cacher, c'est pourquoi les environ six cents animaux residents ici sont generalement visibles dans les vingt minutes suivant l'entree, et pourquoi les observations sont quasi certaines plutot que chanceuses. Yala, trois heures plus loin, a les leopards et les foules; Udawalawe a les elephants et l'espace.
Buffles d'eau, cerfs tachetes, chacals dores et crocodiles marins le long du reservoir completent le trajet, et l'observation d'oiseaux est vraiment bonne, aigles serpentaires huppes, aigles autoursiers, cigognes peintes, et un afflux hivernal important.
Une jeep privee est ce qui distingue cela de la version partagee. Le traqueur travaille mieux quand le vehicule ne poursuit pas un horaire, et vous pouvez rester a un point d'eau aussi longtemps que les animaux y sont plutot que de continuer parce que neuf autres personnes sont pretes.
Les parcs nationaux du Sri Lanka se visitent en jeep ouverte, et chacun excelle dans un domaine. Yala, dans le sud-est, a la plus forte densite de leopards au monde, le plus souvent observes tot le matin sur les rochers et routes du bloc 1; il est ferme une partie de septembre et octobre chaque annee. Udawalawe, ce sont les elephants, de maniere fiable, dans une prairie ouverte autour d'un reservoir, avec le refuge pour elephanteaux orphelins a proximite. Minneriya et Kaudulla, pres de Sigiriya, accueillent le Rassemblement d'environ juillet a octobre, quand plusieurs centaines d'elephants viennent aux reservoirs qui se retrecissent en fin d'apres-midi. Wilpattu, au nord-ouest, est le plus grand parc et le plus calme, avec des leopards, des ours paresseux et des villus, les lacs naturels. Les safaris se deroulent a 6h00 et 14h30, durent trois a quatre heures, et le ticket du parc se paie a l'entree en plus de la jeep.

Avis des voyageurs
Great trip to Udawalawa. Long journey from Galle and weaving mopeds and tuc tucs safely and skilfully negotiated by our driver. Our guide Batu was excellent , very knowledgeable and eagle eyed , spotting birds monkeys and lizards we would have missed. Lots of close encounters with elephants and we saw buffalo, mongoose, crocodiles, wild pigs, monkeys and loads of birds. A great trip and highly recommended!
We had an amazing trip to the National Park! Both our driver and jeep driver at the park were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone! Especially if you want to see elephants!
Excellent tour to the safari park. We saw lots of elephants which was the highlight, and crocodiles, buffalo, deer, monkeys, peacocks, jungle fowl, eagles and lots of other birds. Our guide was great and really good at spotting things that we would have missed.
We had a great tour and can definitely recommend it! Our guide made a big effort and was able to show us many animals that we probably would have never spotted on our own. We also had a lot of fun the whole time. A really wonderful experience!
Navee was very knowledgeable and great at spotting wildlife - I was really happy to have him as our guide. We were incredibly lucky and saw so many elephants, and one even walked right next to the jeep! In the national park we managed to see all the animals except leopards. It was a long day and the transport pick-up wasn’t the nicest, but it was still an incredible experience. Being so close to the elephants was truly mesmerising - I love them so much. We also asked to stop at the Elephant Transit Home before heading back to watch them feeding. They were so funny, and this felt like a much more ethical way to see elephants compared to some other tours. I highly recommend this tour and experience.
An amazing experience in Sri Lanka! The highlight was seeing many elephants up close, including families with small baby elephants- truly unforgettable. Our guide was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, which made the safari even more enjoyable. The comfortable safari jeeps offered great visibility and made it easy to take beautiful photos. A must-do experience for anyone visiting Sri Lanka and a paradise for elephant lovers!
We seen a lot of animals and we had a great time with our guide. The transport was efficient, always on time. I really recomend this trip. It was even better than Yala Block 5&6 Safarii which we took 2 days later.
The day out was amazing. The driver at the safari was knowledgeable and told us lots about the animals we saw. We were able to see water buffalo’s, loads of elephants, crocodiles, monkeys, eagles, peacocks and chameleons. He was able to spot animals that we would definitely have missed if he hadn’t pointed them out. The driver who took us there and back from Mirissa was efficient and friendly.
We had amazing views of the elephants after a very easy pick up! We would definitely recommend to anyone as the wildlife is all incredible
We had an amazing safari! The guide was very knowledgeable and showed us lots of animals including many elephants. He had binoculars with him & helped us take cool photos.
