Koli Dhek Lake, located a short distance from Lohaghat in Champawat district of Uttarakhand, is a relatively new but rapidly gaining popularity man-made lake. It is also called "Mini Switzerland" or "Mini Nainital" by the locals and is giving a new dimension to tourism in the Lohaghat area. IMG_4184.jpeg

Koli Dhek Lake is not just built as a tourist destination, but it is part of a multi-purpose project. The Irrigation Department and Tourism Department of the Uttarakhand Government have jointly made this vision a reality. Built at a cost of about Rs 30 crore, the main purpose of this lake was to provide water for irrigation and to relieve the surrounding villages from the problem of drinking water. But its natural beauty and calm atmosphere soon turned it into a major tourist destination.

This lake is surrounded by lush green trees and hills on all sides. The calm and serene environment here provides an ideal place for nature lovers, photographers and those who want to spend some moments of peace away from the hustle and bustle of urban life. In the morning and evening, when the rays of the sun fall on the water of the lake, the view here is very captivating.

This place provides an opportunity to connect deeply with nature away from the urban crowd. Here only the chirping of birds and the rustling of the wind are heard, which gives peace to the mind.

This lake adds to the beauty of Lohaghat and makes tourists feel peace and relaxation. If you are planning to visit the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, then Koli Dhek Lake can be a great place!

We also had a lot of fun here, we got a lot of leisure. You also get a chance to go boating on the banks of the lake, which you have to drive yourself. 6 of us took 2 boats and had a lot of fun. These were paddle boats which we had to steer ourselves. We had a lot of fun driving them. We used to race among ourselves and had a lot of fun. You should also go, you will have a lot of fun.
