ENCHANTING RARA LAKE
Rara Lake, situated 2990 m above sea level, is the core attraction when traveling through the Rara Mugu and Jumla regions. Popular as the dee[pest lake in Nepal, once someone sees the pristine lake with their own eyes, a feeling of serene calmness takes over them.
The crystal-blue water, the charming view of tall mountains, and the pristine environment around the lake make it a perfect place for travelers to just take a deep breath and forget about all the worries in their lives.
With the lake being surrounded by luxuriant green hills, it also makes for a perfect camping spot. Often called the “Queen of Lakes,” the boating experience in Rara Lake is extraordinary, with water so clear that you can see the shadow of your shadow and trout swimming all around you.
Aside from the lake itself, the diversity of over 50 mammals and 230 birds at Rara National Park is a heaven for animal lovers.
