Location
Sri Lanka is a haven for natural parks and water ways, waterfalls and lagoons, rain forest and wild life reserves abundant with flora and fauna.
Wasgamuwa National Park(NP) is one such area, which is little known. Lying within central and north central provinces, with approximately 50 km northeast of Kandy in Polonnaruwa, Matale and Ampari districts, Wasgamuwa NP has the Mahaweli river and Amban river as its eastern and western boundaries, while southern boundary is formed for the most part by the Duniwila oya. The park covers 39,322 ha and riverine forest area is fairly large.
Wasgamuwa NP is famous as an elephant habitat. These elephants, the population of which is about 200-250 are known to be less habituated to people and it is the unique feature in Wasgamuwa. It is certainly the best place in Sri Lanka to see and experience the 'Wild Elephants'.
In addition to that, 23 species of mammal are to be found in the park. Other mammal species present include the sloth bear, leopard golden jackal, water buffalo, slender Loris, wild boar, spotted deer, braking deer, sambar, black napped hare and fishing
