It is situated in the low-grown Ruhunu district and shares geography with the breathtaking Yala National Park. The park is comprised of wild brush, ocean, beaches, jungles, rocky terrain and numerous lakes and rivers. Because of the wide variety terrain the park is home to animal life of all description from leopards to Asian elephants wild boar crocodiles painted storks and of course the Sri Lanka Junglefowl. Although the Ruhunu district is perhaps better known for its parkland than tea across the region produces some fabulous teas every bit as colourful and full of life as its wild inhabitants!
