Horton Plains National Park is a protected area in the central highlands of Sri Lanka and is covered by montane grassland and cloud forest. It is rich in bio-diversity and many species found here are endemic to the region. It is also a popular tourist destination and is situated 8 kilometres from Ohiya.
Large herds of Sri Lankan sambar deer feature as typical mammals, and the park is also an Important Bird Area with many species not only endemic to Sri Lanka but restricted to the Horton Plains.
