- Feral horses on the floodplains — Small bands of free-roaming horses grazing on the riverine grasslands are the park’s most visually striking residents; they look almost out of a painting and are surprisingly tame to watch from a safe distance. (Personal favorite — nothing beats watching them at golden hour.)
- Birdlife hotspot — A mosaic of marshes, grasslands and channels attracts a huge variety of waterfowl, waders and riverine birds, including rarer wetland specialists. If you’re into birding, expect year-round action and big migratory peaks in winter.
- Braided rivers and boat safaris — The park’s landscape is dominated by braided channels and oxbow lakes; the best way in is by boat. Quiet rides at dawn/dusk are prime for landscapes, shorebirds and the chill, slightly wild river vibe.

- Riverine grasslands and wildflowers — Expansive floodplain meadows burst into color seasonally and support lots of butterflies and marsh life — a different, open-counterpoint to Assam’s dense forests.
- Semi-evergreen forest patches — Pockets of riparian forest hold a different cast of wildlife: primates, understory birds and a lush, humid feel. Short walking trails and guided walks are how you get into this calmer, quieter world.
- River fauna and occasional dolphin sightings — The park’s waterways host a range of aquatic life; on lucky days boaters spot river dolphins and other river specialists while scanning sandbanks and eddies.
- Local riverside life and landscapes — The park edges are dotted with small villages and tea-garden views, which makes for easy cultural stops and nice vantage points for sunset photos over the floodplain.
