Abstract: We consider numerically dynamics of a flat anisotropic Universe in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with positive Lambda in dimensionalities 5+1 and 6+1. We identify three possible outcomes of the evolution, one singular and two nonsingular. First nonsingular outcome is oscillatory. Second is the known exponential solution. The simplest version of it is the isotropic de Sitter solution. In Gauss-Bonnet cosmology there exist also anisotropic exponential solutions. When an exponential solution being an outcome of cosmological evolution has two different Hubble parameters, the evolution leads from initially totally anisotropic stage to a sum of two isotropic subspaces. We show that such type of evolution is rather typical and possible even in the case when de Sitter solution also exists.
