Spread over an area of approximately 1673.93 square kilometers, Gugamal is characterized by rugged terrain with steep slopes, dense forests, and a rich variety of flora and fauna. The vegetation primarily consists of dry deciduous forests, with teak being the dominant tree species. The park's undulating landscape provides an ideal environment for numerous other wildlife species including leopards, sloth bears, sambar, wild boar, and barking deer.
