Big game camps Sri Lanka offers semi permanent tented safari camps on the borders of the most popular national parks and nature reserves, with a more rustic feel. Featuring a more authentic jungle experience minus the frills, Big Game Camps and Lodges offers safari camps to suit to a more economically conscious traveler. The Big Game campsite is located close to the “Katagamuwa” entrance (off Katharagama) facing the park boundary, with a 15 to 20 minute drive to the park entrance. The Campsite is situated in a mini forest reserve surrounded by a vast array of flora and fauna that is unique to the area. It is inevitable that our guests get to observe and be a part of the natural wilderness within such a setting.

The area is a haven for a wide array of birds, which not only forage and hunt in the area, but also nest in the trees. The campsite might also give you glimpses of axis deer and the occasional Sri Lankan Elephant. It is not unknown to hear the sound of leopards and see the mischief that the various species of monkeys – purple-faced langurs and toque macaques – get up to. There is a watering hole in the campsite that attracts thirsty animals, and this gives our guests a great opportunity to observe wildlife up close.
