Elephant Gathering
Get on board an open-topped jeep and head off on safari to find wild elephants at the "The Gathering". This spectacular congregation of up to three hundred wild elephants occurs at Minneriya National Park a 45 minute drive (41km) from Sigiriya. The best time to see this phenomenon is usually during the dry season (July – September) when water is scarce and these animals congregate around the Minneriya Tank (lake) to socialize, bathe, drink and feed.
