It is a man-made lake which was developed by the City Board and the Mussoorie-Dehradun Developmental Authority. The lake is placed at a scenic location about 6 km before Mussoorie on the Dehradun-Mussoorie Road. One can get down at Dhobi Ghat from where the lake is just at a walking distance. Surroundings of the lake include the mesmerizing views of Doon Valley and the verdant hills of Mussoorie. There are pedal boats to enjoy the calmness of the lovely lake. It is a perfect picnic spot for family and couples to spend fun and quality time. Monsoon is the best time to visit as the lake looks most beautiful during that time of the year. There is a nominal entry fee and the lake is open all days of the year. Shops offering refreshments are there to provide refreshments to the visitors.
