The peace which I got here is indefinite, non explainable.Here you can experience mother nature face to face.You will come to know what really nature is.We have to keep safe this nature not due to natures need but its our need to keep it safe.Here I feel not to left this place ever. But life goes on and on and we have to move on. Bye khajjiar.

Beauty of this place cannot be defined in words. The peace you get here is unmatched. You can enjoy boating if you want to, otherwise you can sit around the lake and enjoy the view. Surrounded by beautiful hills and trees, this place give feels of some other world specially in cloudy weather. Just avoid visiting here in monsoon.

Located in chamba district of Himachal Pradesh, it is a very nice tourist destination, surrounded by the trees of devdar, and located in the middle of lush green grass field, gives it the very beautiful and eye pleasing look. Very soul soothing destination to visit.

I went there during summer season(Mid May) so I would be best to give review about only that time period. This place is worth visiting, you will have a park in the center of the hills which is wider than you can imagine. Moreover, adventure activities like horse riding, paragliding and trekking adds on to the enjoyment. Weather is also very nice if you compare it to other places. Sun will show up and after some time, cool and pleasant clouds will be seen. This cycle of weather keeps on repeating. Food courts are also available and local vendors are also engaged here in providing local food. Overall speaking, You should try this place in April-August time according to me if youre planning to go hilly terrain.

This place is heaven... i visited today after 14 years. Nothing has changed only the grasslands have more animal waste because of increased horse riding. Nevertheless this place will never disappoint you. Did paragliding... it was a great experience overall.

I think if somone doesnt cover Khajjair while coming to Dalhousie, the trip isnt worth at all. This is the main tourist spot. Khajjair lake being very small part of it. The view is amazing. No doubt its called the mini Switzerland of India. Covered by tall pine tress on all sides. The place is beautiful.

Very beautiful. Entire lake is covered with fresh snow. Visited last week of Dec. No rush if you reach early. Children will love it. Various activities can also be done like tube ride, paragliding, horse ride. Photographers always ready to take memorable pics. 2-3 hours can be spend easily. Hotels were also there if you wanted to stay. Overall very good experience.

This circular lake is thought to be the result of a gigantic meteorite strike here millions of years ago... Its amazing for the beautiful small carp fish which are here in huge numbers ! the beautiful dragonflies and birds who feed here in the rushes are absolutely beautiful and in so many species and colours ! This lake is extraordinary and in a breathtakingly beautiful place on Earth !

Desclaimer : my opinions are based on my lifestyle still some people may not believe it to be true but still I have visited better places than this .It was not that good, I mean it overrated. It doesnt mean it is not good ,It was fantastic but it was not upto my expectations (It comes with title of mini Switzerland).Pros: in the middle of a wildlife sanctuary.Bounded by thik deodar forest.Cons: too much of human movement .I mean it is good to have some people around u but sometimes when theres too much of them we cant enjoy the beauty and silence of nature.Lake was also not that good

Unfortunately although this lake is just in the center of Khajiar landscape but not well maintained. At least HP tourism must plant ornamental flowers and plants.

Beauty at its peak . They call it mini Switzerland ..... indeed true .Valleys , lakes , weather.... you bet its HEAVEN.On the other hand, being such an amazing tourist destination.... there are few sources that needs to be updated.Lack of ATM !! - very importantLack of medical requirment , pharmacy, doctor at call . Knowing the situation of the country today , it is one of the most important requirements all over .

Located inside Khajjiar park thia lake is set in a huge grassy landscape, with evergreen cedar trees surrounding it from all sides. The lake takes its name from Khajji Nag, the deity in the temple nearby. The lake has considerably shrunk over the years and is now almost on the verge of vanishing.

Review №24

Its a nice place for a little family excursion. The place is known as Mini Switzerland after Swiss Envoy Willy P. blazers visit to the place in 1992. There are only 160 locations including Khajjiar in the world that bear topographical resemblance with Switzerland.

5 star for a reason. Once you visit this place theres no way you can give less review. Lake is quite small but ground is so so big. One small issue is there are lot of people. Theres paragliding too. Only road can issue. If road is under maintenance or something there will be 1-1.5 Km long traffic can be done. Take some food with you for a road. One Tip for you: Take 5₹ coin with you. As there is pay and use toilet only.

Beautiful place, must visit if in Dalhousie or Chamba (an hours drive from both places). Himachal tourism has hotel and rest house available for overnight stay. Usual tourist activities - horse back riding, zorbing, paragliding (will have to travel to nearby location) or take a walk around the complex. Theres a Shiva statue too nearby. Restaurants and liquor store at location. Please do not litter and keep the environment clean.

Known as mini Switzerland it is a scenic location with lush green outfields surrounded by tress all around. We have visited in winter so lake was frozen but the beauty of the place was but just breathtaking. Horse riding was available there and paragliding is also available which is quiet an awesome experience. It is a must visit place when you are travelling around Himachal Pradesh.

Awesome place surrounded by woods. One can enjoy activities here at very low cost. Lake is not clean thats the reason behind its color turned into black. Extra snow can be the reason of roads blocking in the month of January.

Have you ever been to Switzerland? Well, this place makes you feel you’re in Mini Switzerland! This place is actually non existent but the Greenery lures you towards it while in Winter Snow grabs your attention! Architecture is just mesmerising. Don’t forget to visit Khajjiar Lake although.

Its called Switzerland of Himachal Pradesh for a reason. The nature at its best. The scenic beauty of Khajjiar Lake and its vicinity is absolutely breathtaking and beautiful. You could spend hours looking at the mother nature. There are some activities made available by locals for kids. The food available at the restaurant are average and better avoided. Happy vacations.

The place is known as mini Switzerland, and really it stands by its reference. Although theres not much to see over here except some adventurous activities are being done here like paragliding. I took paragliding which costed me around Rs. 2800 for two. Please negotiate before you book because theyd ask you for a very high price, as they asked me for 4k bucks. They will take you on the bottom of another hill, there youll have to trek to the top.

Su
Review №84

It is a good place to with your family for weekend. But you cannot spend more than a day there. You will have to move next as there is not much to look for except the lake and the temple. Para gliding is also an option here but it depends on the weather conditions. You can visit nearby places like dalhousie, kalatop and chamba next day.

Mini Switzerland in India! Serene and pristine. Though its crowded in the morning, it gets less crowded towards afternoon. Its always a good idea to spend a night in Khajjiar instead of Dalhousie. A lot more quiet.

Review №88

This place was great and apparently its been established as Switzerland of Himachal. The scenery was amazing, but they are not paying enough attention to the lake itself. The khajjiar is surrounded with amazing views and it has a good food culture. Spent some time here and for new people there are many photography options.

Review №92

A big lake with park around it. The approach road is narrow from dalhousie as well as chamba. Parking space is limited. Paragliding can be done here. You and sit and relax at the pond. You can also feed fishes in pond. You can spend hours on this lush green ground. There are various activities. Horse riding can be done outside the ground. There are several hotels around the ground where you can enjoy food. There are no washrooms here. Beware of vendors selling medicines in the ground. Request everyone to keep the ground clean of plastics and garbage.

Beautiful place!! Just like swiss landscape surrounded by lush green mountains. It is a peaceful place and I would recommend to stay there for a day at least just to feel the place. There are few activities offered like paragliding (that I wont recommend) horse riding etc. A few nearby places are there, that you may visit and pass the day and then you may visit Dulhousie
