Roop Tal: Off-Beat Adventure in Nepal
Nepal is famous for its treks, temples, spiritual experiences and its people. But, that is not the end of what this country has to offer to its visitors. There are many hidden places in this Himalayan country that can blow your mind away. And I found one such place on my latest visit to this beautiful mountainous country. This place is Roop Tal, one of the many Himalayan lakes located in and around the Pokhara region.
Situated at about 30 kms from Pokhara, this place is totally cut off from civilization and that is the charm of it. The entire location is riddled with adventure and is bound to excite the adventure traveler. Whether you are into canoeing, kayaking, mountain biking, outdoor camping, trekking or birding, this place has it all. This place is great either for the solo adventure traveler, adventurous couple or for families with young kids.
And when you need rest after your adventure filled day, you can climb up to any of the many view points and soak in the beauty of mother nature’s rich bounty. Do remember to prepare yourself with your own gear as there are very few facilities available nearby. And do not forget your mosquito repellents as the mosquitoes here are quite a big size.
