Sanasar Lake is the hub for adventure enthusiasts, offering activities such as paragliding, rock climbing, horse riding, and camping. The serene environment of the lake makes it a perfect spot for picnicking and leisurely walks amidst nature. Due to its elevation of approximately 2,050 meters above sea level, the region has a cool and pleasant climate, which provides a retreat from the scorching plains during summer.
