About Tehri Lake
Tehri Lake is a large reservoir formed by the Tehri Dam, one of the tallest dams in the world, on the Bhagirathi river. It has developed into a popular destination for water sports including jet skiing, kayaking, and boating, along with lakeside camping — a different kind of tourism experience from Uttarakhand's temple and hill-station circuits.
Why It Is Famous
Tehri Lake is known for adventure water sports, lakeside camping, and views of the surrounding hills reflected in the reservoir. It's increasingly popular with younger travelers looking for adventure tourism rather than pilgrimage.
