Detail InformationEdit

Nakuhiatal Lake, Nainital (1218 MT above) lies the mystique lake with 9 corners or or the ‘nine-cornered lake’. Surrounded by dense forested hills on all sides it provides solace from the maddening rush of the plains. Naukuchiatal is nourished by an underwater spring, which keeps its water levels high. It is the deepest lake in the Lake District of India (Nainital) and lost in acres of oak forest in the lesser Himalayas. Naukuchiatal is perhaps the most picturesque lake in Uttarakhand, surrounded by green slopes and oak forests. Naukuchiatal is fed by an underwater spring. The pristine lake with its green surroundings is the highlight of Naukuchiatal. A beautiful tree-lined path runs along the length of the lake and is the ideal place to soak in the natural beauty.
