Gye o kabhi
Can you tell us something about this lake @BhuviGupta why do you like it?
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the question. I think I should add the information in the post itself!
Lake Bhardwaj is a beautiful oasis in between the bustle, steel and chrome that is Gurgaon and Faridabad, which are smaller cities adjoining the India capital city of New Delhi.
A person can reach the lake by taking a short 1 hour hike through the Aravalli forests. While the trail is not marked, it is very visible to the naked eye as it has been trodden quite a few times. The hike will make you pass through 4 other lakes all of which are beautiful. The lakes include the Coral lake (picture below) and some other lakes as well
The interesting things about these lakes are that they are not natural lakes. They have been formed due to mining activity that used to take place till the early 2000s. The mining has stopped and the lakes have thus formed. Also, one must exercise caution while going into the lake for a swim, as the lakes are very deep and there have been reports of people drowning.
The hike and the lake is beautiful! An early morning hike can do wonders for the soul.
Adding some more pictures from the hike -
