Is Udawalawe National Park open every day of the year?

Yes, Udawalawe National Park still stays open for visitors every day of the year, even on weekends and national public holidays.

The usual operating window is 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM each day. Unlike some other wildlife reserves in different countries that go quiet during the monsoon spell, Udawalawe’s maintained ground and paths keep it reachable all year round. On a very rare level, extreme weather could lead to small, temporary track closures for safety reasons, but the park itself seldom closes completely.
