Malaka Cheruvu - Lake in Hyderabad, Rai Durg - , India

Well developed park for walkers, joggers and kids and for cycling as well. Well preserved natural rocks and boulders along with the walking track. Kids and family really enjoyed visiting the park. The kids area is overcrowded due to adult presence over there on weekends evening.

Serene environment with lots of walking track around the lake. A bit more work needed to make it safer for the kids as well. Definitely a good place for walking or chilling out.

The best part about Malaka Cheruvu is the peaceful ambiance it offers. It's an ideal spot for a family picnic or a tranquil solo retreat. You can also hire a boat and paddle around the lake, which is an incredibly soothing experience.

Thank you to the staff and authorities for preserving and maintaining this beautiful spot. I'll definitely be back soon!

A nicely crafted place amid concrete jungle in Raidurgam surrounded by sky scrapers that offers citizens some respite however, needs still some work to address foul smells arising out of sewers that get into it. Parking space and vendors outside also need some organized place to make visitors experience better. Overall a decent place for a walk in the evening or a quick outing except the foul air on one corner of the lake.

Best place for morning and evening walk Also nice garden for kids. Overall everyone can enjoy

Fantastic new park for walkers, jogger's, kids alike. Newly planted saplings are thriving, with a lush green vibe. Serene lake with plenty of fish and birds coming because of the habitat. Development work is ongoing and is going to make the surroundings much more visitor friendly. Washrooms are available halfway on the walking/jogging track. Well preserved natural rocks and boulders between the paved way. Has an entrance at the back as well. Kids and family really enjoyed visiting the park. At first we thought we would just stop and return from the kids play area... but we went on to explore the entire track pretty easily, especially with a toddler and a young kid. Thick plantation around the lake borders make it safe so the kids do not venture into the water, but please do keep a watchful eye on your kids for your own safety. Excellent work done! Really good lake park!

Good Stuff: 1. It's like a bigger and better version of Lotus Pond. Thank you KCR Anna, GHMC and everybody who made this place beautiful. 2. The walking track is around 1.6 km across the lake. 3. Good number of plants and trees. Bad Stuff: 1. I see some idiots still litter the place like they throw biscuit packets etc even in presence of dustbins/Trashcans. These Junglee as*hol*s should be thrown out of this park. 2. Seen some stupid ladies plucking flowers which is not allowed and is damaging beauty of this park. 3. Seen a bunch of fish lying dead across that particular fish farm. 4. (edit as of June 2, 2023): Drainage water is getting mixed like 20% of this place. Check the photo attached.

Good place for a morning walk. This place is currently developing and will be a better place in future. But as of now, its safe and good for walking, jogging, exercise, etc... It has a stretch of 2KM walk for a round. As I mentioned earlier, this place is still under construction and there is lot more to come like children park, outdoor Gym facility.. all in progress....
