Chandratal Lake, located at a height of roughly 4300 metres in the mighty Himalayas, is widely referred to as one of the most beautiful lakes. The magnificent lake, which is the source of the Chandra River, is located on the Samudra Tapu plateau in the Lahaul region of the Lahaul and Spiti district. The crescent form of the lake gives it the name “Chandra Taal” (Moon Lake). This lake is also one of two Ramsar sites in India, both of which are high-altitude wetlands. It used to be a stopover for Tibetan traders on their way to Spiti and the Kullu valley, but now it attracts tens of thousands of adventure seekers.
