Slender Loris Watching in Sigiriya

Experience one of Sri Lanka’s most sought-after wildlife night safaris at Back of Beyond Jungle Hideaway Pidurangala — a guided night walk in Sri Lanka to spot the rare and elusive Grey Slender Loris in its natural rainforest habitat. This nocturnal wildlife encounter is fast becoming one of the top Sigiriya night tours for nature lovers and wildlife photographers alike.

Our Pidurangala night safari begins around 7:00 PM with a short educational presentation by our resident naturalist, covering the behavior, ecology, and conservation status of the Grey Slender Loris and other nocturnal species found in the area. Following the briefing, guests head out on a guided forest night walk, where these small nocturnal primates — known for their large reflective eyes and slow, delicate movements — can often be spotted moving through the canopy.

Pidurangala’s low light pollution and rich biodiversity make it one of the best locations in Sri Lanka for nocturnal wildlife spotting, including possible sightings of owls, geckos, and other forest-dwelling creatures, accompanied by the immersive sounds of the jungle at night.

This eco-tourism experience blends adventure, wildlife conservation awareness, and an authentic glimpse into Sri Lanka’s hidden forest ecosystem — ideal for wildlife photography tours, nature enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a unique Sri Lanka eco-tour.
