Overview of Rara Lake Short Trek
Rara Lake short trek is the most beautiful and the largest lake in Nepal Himalaya. The area of Rara Lake covers 10.8 sq km at an altitude of 2990 meters. It is the wish list of many internal tourists. However, few foreign tourist trekkers venture it due to its remoteness.
Highlights of Rara Lake Short Trek
- Pristine Fresh Water Lake with a picturesque landscape.
- Excursion of the largest Lake of Nepal.
- Pass through dense pine forest.
- Inhale the purest oxygen that cleanses your lungs.
- Capture the picturesque sceneries, sunset, and sunrise.
- Visit remote and isolated rural traditional villages of Nepal.
The main attraction of the trek includes a beautiful lakes periphery surrounded by the dense pine forest at the top of the valley. The lake is rather famous as the “Queen of Lakes”. During the sunny day, the blue sky over the lake and the reflection of Mt. Saipal further add beauty to the glory of Rara Lake.
The most attractive part of the Rara Lake Short trek is hiking within the protected area of Rara National Park. The smallest national park in the country, Rara protects the lake at its heart. The national park falls at an altitude ranges from 1800m to 4048 m of pristine forest, black juniper, Himalayan spruce oak, and other related species. The park is the ideal habitat for musk deer and other wildlife including Himalayan black bear, leopard, goral, Himalayan Thar, and wild boar. Snow trout is the only species of fish found in the deep serene of Rara lake.
The exotic and wonderful journey starting with a scenic flight toward the tropic at Nepalgunj city. After this, another exotic flight to Talca airport of Mugu takes you to the Rara trekking trail. However, the lake further offers a long trekking route. For this, one needs to fly to Jumla from Nepalgunj. The long trek leads through interesting villages of Hindu Thakuri Malla and Tibetan, who influenced tribes with rich customs and traditions. This trek also offers amazing views of high snow-capped mountains.
