Naukuchiatal, the lake of nine corners, is apparently the most beautiful lake in Nainital district of Uttarakhand. Embraced by the majestic Kumaon and lush greenery, the lake is situated at a height of 1220 metres and is fed by underwater spring. There are many options to stay near the lake and it’s highly recommended to spend at least a night here. There are many activities that you can indulge in here, such as boating, kayaking, angling, swimming and horse riding. Hang gliding is also organised by some tour companies, and the flight offers a bird’s-eye view of the lake and its surroundings. Besides, this place is home to a variety of Himalayan birds and colourful butterflies, and hence, there’s high probability that you may get to witness some of them during your visit.
