Yala National Park that consists of five blocks which is the most visited.
Yala Block 1 has an extraordinary variety of landscape shapes. This is the most visited area in the national park as it contains the highest density of leopards. The Block 1 Palatupane gate is the main entrance into Yala. This is the area where leopards are frequently observed and they have an ideal habitat with a landscape full of rocky outcrops, many lakes and because of easy access to waterholes the population of animals is denser here. The large herds of spotted deer are the main prey of leopards. Historically this is the most used safari area of Yala and this part of life for the animals have made them habituated to safari vehicle; a fact that makes sightings much easier because animals are not fleeing as they would in other wild areas where safari vehicles are uncommon.
Yala Block 2 has large areas of open grassland. For this reason, it is an ideal place to observe wild animals and especially leopards. However, unlike Yala Block 1, Block 2 cannot be visited on half-day safaris and without special permission. In addition, the slopes are much more difficult to navigate than in the much-frequented Block 1.
Block 3 of Yala National Park can be described as a beautiful wilderness with hardly any visitors. An ideal safari area for those who prefer a private nature experience but it must be stressed that wildlife sightings tend to be much less here than in block 1. There is no dense concentration of wild animal due to dry conditions and other factors. One factor that makes wildlife watching more difficult is that animals are not used to the safari traffic, they will hide or flee.
During the month of September block 1 is closed for visitors by enabling the flora and fauna a time of rehabilitation, without any interruption. However, as the block 3 is open, visitors can do the safaris in block 3. With the access from the Galge entrance, this is simply a protected wilderness and ideal safari area for those who prefer a private nature experience. Wildlife sightings tend to be less here than in block 1 as animals are not used to the safari traffic.
Block 4 of Yala National Park can be described as a beautiful wilderness with hardly any visitors. An ideal safari area for those who prefer a private nature experience but it must be stressed that wildlife sightings tend to be much less here than in block 1. There is no dense concentration of wild animal due to dry conditions and other factors.
