Prashar Lake Trek (2020) Floating Island Full Video | Mandi, Himachal Pradesh

Prashar Lake, also known as the Parashar Lake, is located around 50 km from Mandi in Himachal Pradesh. The lake sits at an altitude of 8956 ft and is a natural abode for serenity and scenic beauty; here, you also get to enjoy the beautiful views of Pir Panjal, Dhauladhar and Kinnauri mountain ranges as an incentive.

It is believed that the sage used to meditate near the bank of this lake, reason why the temple and the lake are named so. The lake situated at such an altitude turns frozen during winter, while it maintains its sparkling beauty throughout the year.


As per legends, it is believed that Bansen, the king of Mandi, built the sage Prashar temple in 13th century in pagoda style, and took around 18 years to finish its construction and according to peoples the lake was made by Pandvas. The lake is in oval and has a mysterious floating island inside it.


इस लेक के बारे में ऐसी मान्यता है कि महर्षि पराशर ने यहीं पर बैठकर पूजा-पाठ और मेडिटेशन किया था। यह दुनिया के उन अजूबों में शामिल है जिसकी खूबसूरती हमेशा बरकरार रहती है। यह जगह शांति और सीनिक ब्यूटी का खजाना है। यहां से आपको पीर पंजाल, धौलाधार और किन्नौरी पर्वत श्रृंखलाओं को भी देखने का मौका मिलता है।
