In order to understand the effect of microtopography on vegetation restoration and soil physical properties, exploring the influence mechanism between grassland restoration and soil physical properties and to provide scientific basis for local ecological restoration. This study choose the Zaozhuanggou basin in Wuqi county as the study area, vegetation restoration and soil physical properties differentiation characteristics on the different landscape positions were studied. We chose 4 slopes and set eight sampling positions on every slope from top to bottom, a total of 128 sampling points of vegetation investigation and soil samples collected in this study. The soil was divided into three layers 0—10, 10—20 and 20—40 cm for sampling and determining soil physical properties, analyzed the correlation between vegetation distribution and soil physical properties. The results showed that the vegetation distribution and soil physical properties on different landscape positions showed the tendency of lower slope better than others above the groove line, and the bottom slope is worst. The vegetation restoration has improvement effect on soil aggregate, the improvement of soil aggregate and soil physical properties caused by vegetation restoration was mainly concentrated on the surface soil of 0—20 cm, and weak in the soil of 20—40 cm. Gradient has a significant impact on vegetation coverage, soil bulk density, porocity and saturated water capacity. But it has no significant effect on the soil aggregate and soil particle composition. The effect of vegetation restoration on improving soil particle composition is slow. If the soil particle composition is destroyed, it will be difficult to recover in the short term.
