I am visiting Yala next week and want to avoid the traffic jams in Block 1. Are there alternative blocks with good light and leopard activity.

Accepted Answer

For serious photography without the crowds, request a safari into Block 5 or the adjacent Lunugamvehera National Park. While the leopard density is slightly lower than Block 1, the lack of jeep traffic means the animals are more relaxed. You get clean backgrounds and excellent golden hour lighting across the undisturbed scrub jungle.
