Around the lake there are settlements of locals, during the trekking Rara Lake, we will pass through those villages. The depth of Rara Lake at around 200m gives a deep blue color on sight.

Why Rara Lake?

If you are looking for non-crowded trekking in stunning Himalaya this can be your wise selection. Rara Lake is located in the remote Himalaya of Karnali in Nepal, the simple but hard life and beautiful nature of the region is extraordinary.

Rara Lake Trek explores: Musk deer, Leopard cat, Ghoral, Tahr, gray wolf, Himalayan black bear, snow leopard and the rare red panda which are all native to this area. Rara Lake itself is really wide and lengthy to prove it is the biggest lake.

Apart from the natural scenery, Rara lake trekking is combined with the culture and antique tradition of Himalayan people. Their warm welcome to trekkers is another stunning practice among locals.  And the reflection of the surrounding Himalaya by this deep lake is the most attractive part being at Rara.


    Why is Rara Lake Jaljala trekking special?

    Trekking to Rara Lake alone is interesting but when trekkers get to walk along the local villages filled with charming people in their simple mountain life, it makes the trekking experience better without a doubt. Jaljala is a local village in our Rara Lake trekking itinerary, which is special because of the historic moment in Nepal in the history.

    There is good accommodation on the rara lake trek.   

    Rara Lake lies in the western region of Nepal, far from the Capital of Nepal, during Maoist insurgency, these villages used to be under control of rebellions. That is why this trekking route is also famous as communist trekking trail of Nepal or the historic war trekking trail.

    Being frank with you, the trekking route does not have any proper evidence to show you the residue of war time. Neither it has any museum but the story you hear from our guide will certainly give a tentative flash back to those times in these villages.
