Manasbal Lake

Destination

Manasbal Lake

Deep, clear waters north of Srinagar—birdlife, lotus, and open stillness.

Manasbal is often called Kashmir’s deepest lake—clear water, lotus margins, and a calm that rewards an unhurried day trip from Srinagar.

We plan Manasbal when guests want nature without the high-meadow drive of Sonamarg.

Highlights
