History Of Chamera Lake & Chamera Dam
Dalhousie, Himachal Pradesh, India
Details: Chamera Lake is an exquisite artificial reservoir located in the Chamba district near the hill station of Dalhousie. It was formed as a result of the Chamera Dam project built on the Ravi river, which is a major source of hydroelectricity for the region. The lake is situated at an elevation of approximately 763 meters above sea level and serves as a vital water source for local villagers. Unlike many natural lakes, this man-made wonder is characterized by a complete absence of aquatic life, which makes its still, emerald-blue waters exceptionally clear and perfect for various water sports. The surrounding landscape is a breathtaking contrast of dense pine forests and steep mountain slopes that reflect beautifully on the water's surface during the early morning hours. This destination has evolved into a premier tourist hub, offering a serene escape from the bustling crowds of the main town. Visitors often spend hours simply gazing at the expansive water body or enjoying the cool breeze that flows through the valley. The lake is divided into three stages corresponding to the dam's hydroelectric phases, each offering unique vantage points for sightseers. It is a favored spot for families and honeymooners who seek a peaceful environment combined with the thrill of outdoor activities. The infrastructure around the lake includes well-maintained viewpoints, small food stalls serving local Himachali snacks, and dedicated boating jetties managed by the Himachal Pradesh Department of Tourism. Despite being artificial, the lake feels like a natural part of the Himalayan ecosystem, blending seamlessly with the rugged terrain of the Shivalik ranges. It is a must-visit for anyone traveling to Dalhousie in March, April, or May.
