    Prepare to get wet today as we enjoy a fun day out on the water that all the family will enjoy. Go white water rafting on the Kelani River and pass striking scenery as we navigate the rapids for 5km. Later we embark on a canyoning adventure through the jungle.

    Day 4, Kinchigune Nature Trail
    Kitulgala - Belihuloya. This morning we set off on the Kinchigune Nature Trail, a 6km trail that winds through forests and runs alongside the Belihuloya River.

    Day 5, Horton Plains
    Today we explore the windy and wild Horton Plains National Park, 2,100m above sea level. Trek to the World's End viewpoint for breathtaking views of the mountains and green jungle, then take a dip in Baker's Falls. Keep an eye out for some of the many species that inhabit the park. Sambar deer, wild boars and langur monkeys all live here, and we may be lucky enough to spot some of these animals before we return to the campsite.
    1 breakfast, 1 lunch, 1 dinner included.
    Day 6, Udawalawe National Park
    Belihuloya - Udawalawe. Our wildlife spotting continues today as we travel to a comfortable tented campsite in the famous Udawalawe National Park, our home for the next two nights. Embark on an SUV safari and look out for some of the 400 hundred wild elephants that live in the park. Other species we may see include leopards, deer, crocodiles, sloth bears and buffalo. After our busy day of game spotting we return to our campsite for dinner.
    1 breakfast, 1 lunch, 1 dinner included.
    Day 7, Udawalawe National Park
    Spotting wild animals can be down to luck and if we didn't manage to see all of Udawalawe's iconic species yesterday then we have another chance today. Return to the park this morning and again after dark, when the leopards come out to hunt.
