This spectacular and enchanting lake is situated at a distance of about 18 kms. From Gangotri,   negotiable through rough and tough mountain trail. The trek is very tiring and there are testing moments even for a hardy trekker.
There is no facility of any kind on the way and one has to make all arrangements in advance. A local guide is a must. The lake is crystal clear with the mighty Thalayasagar (spahatikling) peak forming a splendid backdrop. The place is about 15000 feet of sea level and is the base camp for trekking to the Thalayasagar, Jogin, Bhirgupanth and other peaks.
