My TripAdvisor Review No.276: Pykara Lake, Ooty.

Big Lake With Boating Facilities.

This lake is about 20 km away from Ooty, on the road to Gudalur from Ooty. It is much bigger than the lake in Ooty town, and there are waterfalls a little away from the lake, known as the Pykara Falls. There is also a Forest Rest House and boat house with a restaurant from where one can hire row boats and speed boats as well. There is a parking lot near the boat house.

We stopped by at Pykara Lake on the way out from Ooty to Mysore via Gudalur. There were some nice shady meadows by the lake where we had our picnic breakfast and took some pictures. The lake was very calm and serene and surrounded by a forest of pine trees.
