Karanji Lake - Lake in Mysuru - Mysuru, India

It is nice place to spend the time with the nature and verieties of birds. Can able to see the peacocks and some birds with nearest distance. Boating also available inside. In the weekend time some rush will be there.

A peaceful place to visit whenever going to Mysore. The Zoological garden that surrounds the lake is such a beautiful place to take a walk, with friends, partner or even solo. Would definitely recommend to add to your itinerary when visiting Mysore.

Nice park, beautiful lake where you can do boating, you get to see variety of peacocks, small kids play park, some nice places for photoshoot.

The lake is around 100 yrs old. You can find boating, garden, birds as well as museum here. Overall quite place

This place is underrated. Entrance fee is of two types,only lake or lake + zoo, we gotta pay extra if we choose combo pack but it's cheaper compared to paying differently for zoo and the lake. We can take a boat ride here at a very cheaper price. Also you can ride the boat yourself if you want to. It's a scenic place with variety of birds playing in the water. Keep your entrance ticket safe as you can use the same for zoo as well instead of standing in queue and buying tickets again in zoo. Food items are not allowed inside if they are packed in plastic. Not all staffs are friendly

Karanji Lake is an underrated gem that pleasantly surprised me. Nestled in tranquility, this serene lake offers a range of activities to enjoy. One of the highlights is the enchanting peacock enclosures, where you can walk amidst the graceful birds in their natural habitat. The boating option adds an extra touch of adventure and allows you to immerse yourself in the surrounding beauty. With its picturesque setting and diverse attractions, Karanji Lake is a place where you can easily spend half a day, reveling in nature's beauty. Don't miss out on this hidden oasis waiting to be discovered

The ticket and parking was quite expensive. There's like a park and greenary with children play area...you can try boating but there will be heavy rush during weekends...I think it is overrated place !!

for nature lovers, this butterfly park boasts of more than 45 captivating species of butterflies. One can see various host plants and nectar plants which have been planted here to facilitate breeding and sustenance of butterflies. Some of these plants have been brought from various hill-stations. Another attraction at the lake is the Regional Museum of Natural History, which is located on its banks, providing information on the natural environment of South India, and on the nature conservation. It was inaugurated in the year of 1995 with the prime objectives of showcasing flora, fauna and geographical aspects of Southern India and emphasising on the conservation of nature and its resources by illustrating the interrelationship between plants and animals. It also aims to create environmental awareness through various programs.
