How much is the Udawalawe National Park entrance fee?
In September 2026, a published estimate puts the total gate charge for one foreign adult travelling alone at about LKR 13,420 (roughly $40 to $45), including vehicle and service charges. This does not include renting a safari jeep from commercial operators.
Use this number as a guide only. It comes from a 2026 gate-price breakdown, so it is not a guarantee of the exact admission rate later on. What you pay can change based on nationality, age, how many people are in the group, and any taxes plus fees for shared vehicle or services. If you travel as a group, some costs may be split, so the per-person amount can be lower. Before you go, confirm the final payable total with the Department of Wildlife Conservation.
