These are the two hidden lakes of the seven lakes that are collectively referred to as Sattal. These lakes are located at a distance of around 20 km from Nainital. Just before the main three lakes of Sattal—Ram Tal, Lakshman Tal and Sita Tal—a route descends towards a dense oak forest. Bharat Tal lies just at the beginning of this route while you need to walk into the forest to reach Hanuman Tal. Although these lakes remain dry during summers, in the winter season they are flocked by migratory birds. So if you are visiting Sattal during monsoons or winters, do not forget to explore a little further to see Hanuman Tal and Bharat Tal.
