Place is filled with natural wilderness of low lands in Sri Lanka. Water that comes from Matale and Bakamuna area went through this park. I stayed near two weeks near to these lands. I saw natural habitats of wild animals in really close way. This area is filled with Sri Lankan River water Crocs. Contact me for more information if you want to plan your holidays

It holds a large number of endemic species of plants and animals, and a variety of plants of known benefit to man. Forest Reserve is the last viable remnant of Sri Lanka’s tropical lowland rain forest; over 60% of the trees are endemic and many of these are rare; and there are 21 endemic bird species, and a number of rare insects, reptiles and amphibians (IUCN Technical Evaluation).

Angammedilla park is a wildlife park north of Wasgamuwa National Park and bordering the Parakrama Samudra. You won't encounter that much of wildlife here compared to other national parks in the country but is an ideal place to relax.
Elahera road from Bakamuna up to the point where you have to turn off towards the park entrance is really scenic and runs adjacent to the Elahera Minneriya Yoda Ela.
There is a wildlife bungalow and a campsite situated within the park. Reservations can be made at the Department of Wildlife Conservation situated in Jayanthipura, Battaramulla or via the department website. Bookings for each month opens on the first monday of the previous month.
From the park entrance you can also take the Kalahangala Road which is a backroad to Polonnaruwa that runs alongside the Parakrama Samudra.

Angammedilla National Park is one of the new national parks in Sri Lanka. Originally Angammedilla was a forest reserve within the Minneriya-Girithale Sanctuary. Angammedilla also secures the drainage basins of Minneriya and Girithale irrigation tanks, water sources in Sudu Kanda (Sinhala for "White hill") and habitats and wildlife of the adjacent forests. It is located 225 kilometres away from Colombo in Polonnaruwa District.

Amban river which is sourced by Sudu Kanda forms the southern border of the park. A mountain range stretches across the park from Girithale to Minneriya. In the drought period the park is very dry. In the rainy season, mountainous area receives more rainfall than the plains. Since a mix wet and dry climate persists in the park the vegetation is a mix of wet zone and dry zone plants.

In the ancient times water has irrigated from Amban river to Parakrama Samudra in a canal done in stone. The rocky wall of the canal called royal wall by the villagers.

Sri Lankan elephant, Sri Lankan sambar deer, Indian muntjac, Sri Lankan axis deer, water buffalo, wild boar, and peafowl are common within the park. However Sri Lanka leopard, sloth bear, grizzled giant squirrel and Sri Lanka junglefowl are sometimes seen. The primate species red slender loris, tufted gray langur, and purple-faced langur are seen also.
