Suraj Tal Lake, Himachal


Suraj Tal Lake in Lahaul, Himachal, India

Amongst some of the most beautiful lakes that I have visited in India the Suraj Tal High Altitude Lake is one that I have visited/trekked several times.

Suraj Tal lies just 3 km short of Bara-Lacha-La pass (4890m) and 65 km from Keylong in the Lahaul valley of Himachal Pradesh. The lake is the source of river Bhaga which merges with river Chandra at Tandi to form Chandrabhaga River (also known as Chenab River).
