Pykara Lake & Falls

About Pykara Lake & Falls

Pykara Lake AND the Pykara Falls lie about 20 km FROM Ooty, set amid undulating green hills AND dense forest. The lake's calm waters AND the cascading falls create one of the most beautiful natural landscapes of the Nilgiris. Boating ON the lake IS a highlight, AND the famous motor-boat ride across its broad expanse offers superb views of the surrounding countryside. The falls, framed by forest, are especially dramatic after the rains. Combining lake, waterfall AND unspoilt nature, Pykara IS a serene excursion that reveals the softer, wilder beauty of the hill station.
