Our verdict
Leopard Trails is the camp for travellers who came for the leopards. The naturalist team is the most experienced in Sri Lanka — most have spent more than a decade tracking individual cats by name. Mobile tents with proper en-suite bathrooms, private dining, two game drives a day in Block 1. Less of a 'resort' feel than Wild Coast or Chena Huts; more of a serious wildlife expedition.
