Vegetation and Topography at Manas National Park

The vegetation that covers most of the park is of the mixed deciduous variety. This mixed forest is interspersed by small glades of grass where deer can be seen grazing in large numbers. The topography of the park is mainly small meadows located among thickly forested foothills with many rivulets, streams and natural drains flowing all over. The park is mainly drained by the river Manas, which also forms the international boundary between India and Bhutan. In the lower reaches, there are many smooth sandy stretches with clumps of trees growing in, and around, them.

In general, Manas offers some of the most pleasing to the eye natural surroundings in the country.
