With its origin at the majestic Mukurthi peak, the Pykara River feeds a series of gushing waterfalls before ending at the majestic Pykara Lake. Situated amidst a lush green shola forest, Pykara Lake is formed because of the dam and power plant constructed on the river. With its adjoining boat house and the famous Pykara falls nearby, a picnic on the shores of Pykara Lake with the family is one of the most relaxing things to do in Ooty when you stay at any of the Club Mahindra resorts in Ooty.

If you’re looking for a little more adventure at Pykara Lake, you can rent a speedboat for a ride around the lake but given it’s tranquillity and the sense of calm that surrounds the lake, you’d prefer the silence maybe. On the way to Pykara Lake, one can also visit the Wenlock Downs - a spectacular expanse of grassy meadows that is considered to be an excellent picnic spot. Pack a few sandwiches and beverages, a blanket and a book and get ready to enjoy a tranquil day in the Nilgiris with your family.

With Club Mahindra, you can witness many such magnificent experiences across 100+ resorts in India and abroad! To know more about the experience of visiting the Pykara Lake when you check into a Club Mahindra resort in Ooty, read the Club Mahindra member reviews.

Invest in a lifetime of wonderful holiday memories.
