I visited Khajjiar shortly after the monsoon (one of the best seasons to visit). It is a sprawling green meadow with a marsh lake in the middle and surrounded all around by deodar trees. There is a cottage run by Himachal tourism situated right in the meadow (the iconic photo that you see when you search Khajjiar in Google), where you can book your stay through the Himachal tourism website. It was lush green and the weather was pleasant in September. The good thing about Khajjiar is that it's not overcrowded (yet). There is so much fresh air and tranquility. You can take a good walk around the perimeter and then sit on a bench and enjoy the view how much ever you want. This place is a great escapade from the noise and crowd of the city.
Visiting Khajjiar Lake in Himachal Pradesh was an enchanting experience that left me awe-inspired by nature's beauty. The moment I reached this picturesque location, I was greeted by the breathtaking landscape of lush green meadows, surrounded by towering deodar trees.
I took a peaceful stroll around the lake, absorbing the tranquility and enjoying the cool breeze that gently caressed my face.
->For adventure seekers, there were options for horse riding and zorbing, which added an extra dose of excitement to the visit.
-> Highly recommended for those seeking solace amidst nature's wonders!
It is a very peaceful place, and lots of greenery. I would recommend going with family and friends to spend an entire day or can stay for couple of days. The route is pretty hilly so be careful if you are driving personal vehicle, for me it was wery wonderful experience.
Khajjiar which is also known as Mini Switzerland truly lives up to its name. This majestic place is a must visit place in your lifetime. There are hardly any places like this in india other than Kashmir Doodh Pathri. I visited this place multiple times but every time this place feels special. Visited this place 9 months back too.
Iconic lake shown in bollywood movies especially in Rishi Kapoor's movies, The Khajjiar Lake. I went there with lots of expectations and although 80% passed as natural beauty of this lake is amazing but mankind failed by 20%, we ruined it.. it shrinked badly. I don't know the reason but it happened .. Khandar ko dekh ker laga ki imarat buland rahi hogi.. we had great time around the bugiyaals of lake. Good spot for spending 1-2 hours easily and for family picnic
Nice place to picnic with family . There are few activities like para gliding , zorbing , horse riding which you can do at a cost.
There is a public toilet available for rs 10 per person however it is not very clean .
Few food stalls are available for snacks .
Extremely scenic and on par with any European tourist places. I feel, a few unnecessary tourist attractions (such as Horse riding and inside park eateries) should be avoided to make this more pleasant
Awesome beautiful. The lake is just out of the world. Infact the The whole way from kalatop to khajjiar is raw Beauty, just marvelous.
