Marsar Lake Tourism

Type of destination: Natural Attraction

Closed in: NA

Marsar Lake, also known as 'Mansar Lake', is a spectacular alpine lake situated in the Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. Nestled amidst the towering peaks of the Himalayas at an elevation of 3,778 meters above sea level, it is often overshadowed by the more renowned Tarsar Lake. Marsar, draped in a cloak of enigmatic beauty, is part of a twin lake sensation with Tarsar, both contributing to the surreal experience of trekkers seeking solitude and adventure. With no direct roadway leading to it, Marsar Lake is accessed through a challenging yet highly rewarding trek that begins from the Aru village. Surrounded by lush meadows and dense forests, the lake is a hidden gem that captures the essence of the untouched beauty of Kashmir. The clarity of its waters, reflecting the blue of the skies and the green of the grasslands, makes for a poetic landscape. Visitors to Marsar Lake will revel in the tranquillity and pristine environment, which serves as a habitat for a variety of flora and fauna unique to the region.
