Wetlands International Indonesia Programme

Extensive, relatively undisturbed peatswamp forest with a small area of dry land forest. The southern tip has been developed for rice sawahs. The eastern part is permanently flooded. The area represents the best example of inland lowland swamp forest in the province with a rich plant species due to the proximity of dry land. The area also supports a varied wildlife and contains many rivers. Principal vegetation: 100,000 ha of peatswamp forest.
