Dudipatsar Lake Trek
Introduction:
Dudipatsar is a picturesque lake in the Naran Valley at 3900m. Dudi means white or milky, Pat means mountains and Sar means lake. The lake is surrounded by peaks clad with snow, reflection of which gives the lake its name. The trail starts at a small village called Besal (3250m) and goes along the Purbinaar river(a tributary of the Kunhar River). The trail itself is quite diverse in its flora and fauna. The up and down trail over the green meadows make for a perfect hike with inter crossing streams, wild flowers and grazing cattle from the local villages.
