Rara Lake Tour is the best holiday trip in Western Nepal. The deepest and Largest lake in Nepal, Rara Lake is also considered as The Queen of lakes. Rara lake is situated at the altitude of 3000m inside Rara National Park, Mugu. This place is very rich in natural beauty consisting breathtaking scenes. The number of tourists visiting Rara Lake has swelled tremendously after the Surkhet-Jumla section of Karnali Highway was completed. We can enjoy boating in clear waters, hike to nearby hills with breathtaking views of hills and mountains. The Rara Lake area is so beautiful like a paradise.

Rara national park, Nepal’s smallest and most scenic national park that spreads over an area of 106sq km is also located on this site. The Conifers, Rhododendron forests add the beauty to this area. More than 500 species of flowers and herbs are found in this park. The stunning views of snowcapped peaks reflect on the crystal clear water of turquoise lake Rara.

The best visiting time to the lake is September/October and April - May. From December to March, the temperature is below the freezing point, and heavy snowfall occurs upto one meter, blocking the way. April to June is warm here.

Thakur society is dominant in this area. The Thakur Baba’s Temple is situated in the southest corner of Rara Lake. It is believed that, the god Thakur shot the arrow to open the passage of the lake reducing the damage caused by flooding.
