Tarsar Marsar is by far the prettiest alpine lake trek in India.
Located in Kashmir, this enchanting twin lake hike holds its status undeterred even though the state also has the famous 'KGL', revered for its alluring beauty which in factt gives one a chance to see 5 glacial lakes.
The trail takes you along the meadows of Aru valley through Lidderwat to reach the first glacial lake Tarsar.
An evening spent here is a heavenly experience as you have options to relax by the lakeside or enjoy the peripheral hike around the lake which gives you multiple perspectives of this enormous blue lake with lush green surroundings
Marsar, the mysterious sister lake is not too far from here. Separated by a mountain ridge, lake marsar is contrastingly beguiling itself. The folktales around this lake put it as a cursed lake.
There is a surprise lake that one gets to camp at, higher than both the lakes but smaller in size, Sundersar.
The journey of the three lakes leaves one mesmerised and in awe of nature.
Kashmir is indeed heaven on Earth.
