Loris Tour – Eyes of The Wilpattu at Night

Loris Tour – Eyes of The Wilpattu at Night

Art, Culture & Heritage

Wilpattu is renowned for its dense forest cover and numerous natural lakes, creating an ideal habitat for the slender loris. As twilight descends, the forest comes alive with the sounds of wildlife — and guided by an expert, you venture deep into the heart of the park. Equipped with a red-filtered flashlight to minimise disturbance, you tread softly along the paths, eyes keenly scanning the trees for the glint of the loris’s large, reflective eyes.

These tiny primates, with their distinctively slow and graceful movements, captivate observers as they navigate branches with remarkable alertness. As you explore, you may also witness tree crabs clinging to mangrove roots or spot various fish gliding through gentle forest streams. With a bit of luck, you could even glimpse playful river otters or hear the distant call of a nightjar echoing through the forest.

After this unforgettable experience, you’ll return to your lodge in time for a warm dinner beneath the stars.
