Prashar Lake - The lake has a floating island in it and it is said to be unclear how deep it is, with a diver not being able to determine its depth Crossed rocky Terrain, Legend says that this island is a magical spot created by the Prashar Sage to meditate on. This lake has infinite depth & island keep changing its location.
How to Reach Prashar Lake?
We reached diurectly and took aroudn 13 hours with 1 small break. It was around 550 Km from Gurgaon and aroudn 3 hours from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh. But roads were very bad for about 5 km before the lake. (March 2017)
We have got a room inside the temple at Rs 150 per room and it was really great experience. However there were no washroom attached but you could walk up to go to toilet.
History of Prashar Rishi Temple
The temple was built in the thirteenth century and legend has it was built by a baby from a single tree.
Camping at Prashar Lake
Camping is Really easy there (Rs 500 per person and easily available there), if you want to setup your own tent then you can do at Rs 125 per person (you have to pay forest department which is their fees to setup a tent).
Note - You can't setup a tent inside temple premises. But you can setup anywhere outisde the fence.
