Are there multiple entrances to Udawalawe National Park?

No, Udawalawe National Park operates with only one official main entrance for visitors, located on the Thanamalwila Road close to the Udawalawe Reservoir area.

Every safari jeep has to come in and leave via this central gate, where the Department of Wildlife Conservation ticketing office is set up. Park rangers and the anti-poaching teams may also use administrative entry points, but regular tourists cannot use other gates. Keeping everything consolidated helps with vehicle count tracking, and it supports strict enforcement of park rules, so everything is easier to monitor and control.
