Umiam Lake Viewpoint - Featured Reviews (11097)
Umiam Lake is a reservoir located in the hills 15 km to the North of Shillong in the state of Meghalaya, India) The lake serves as a major tourist attraction for the state of Meghalaya) It is also a popular destination for water sport and adventure facilities.
Umiam Lake is Shillong's major hub for water sports and boating. Paddle boats, water scooters, and speed boats are some of the plentiful options for those who look to hit the waters. There are many other resorts tucked in the serene lakeside woods where you can spend time amidst the quiet, natural surroundings.
The lake, which has an area of over 100 sqmiles, was designed with a life span of 100 years, which means it would become unsuitable for generating power after 2065. The maximum depth of the lake is around 200 ft which is also the height of the dam.
Overall, my visit to the Umiam Lake viewpoint was an unforgettable experience. The stunning views of the lake and its surroundings, along with the opportunity to indulge in some adventure activities, make it a must-visit spot in Meghalaya. So, if you're planning a trip to Meghalaya, don't miss out on the chance to visit this breathtakingly beautiful spot!
The view is awesome but they'll charge you Rs100 for parking even if you stop by for a minute
Nice view of the lake. We went there in the afternoon and saw such a beautiful sunset. Look at the photos of the view.
Parking fees Rs. 20, you can have a beautiful view of the Umiam Lake from this view point!
It's a nice place but you can only enjoy it if the weather is good. We went in june starting around 10 am it was very hot and sunny. A 5 minute boat ride for 470 Rs was a little much i guess.
It is a man made reservoir which in comparison to the natural beauty of other tourist spots in meghalaya is a little faded.
It was sunday so the cafeteria was also closed. Boating was still going on.
Huge lake.Beautiful view. Decent boat ride.
The view is beautiful. They charge a parking of RS 20/- so if u are coming from Shillong you should wait for the next view point which is just 100 mtrs ahead and is free.
