How To Reach Vishansar Lake

Sonamarg, Jammu and Kashmir, India
Vishansar Lake (meaning 'Lake of Vishnu') is a stunning oligotrophic alpine lake situated in the Himalayan mountains of the Ganderbal district. It is a key highlight and the first major lake encountered on the famous Kashmir Great Lakes Trek. Fed by melting snow and glaciers, the lake is known for i ts pristine blue-green waters. It is an important source of the Neelum River (also called Kishanganga). The surrounding area, including the adjacent Krishansar Lake and the meadows of Nichnai, is a paradise of lush alpine meadows where local shepherds graze their flocks during the summer. The lake is famous for its Brown Trout fish. Due to heavy snowfall, it remains frozen and inaccessible from late October to early June. Its magnificent backdrop of towering, snow-capped peaks makes it a spiritual and photographic marvel.
