Pakhal Lake

A manmade lake, Pakhal Lake was built around 1213 AD during the Kakatiya reign by King Ganapati Deva. It was built for the irrigational purposes. Spread across 30 sq km, this lake is surrounded by the refreshing greenery of dense forest. Adding to its beauty is the Pakhal Wildlife Sanctuary which is just next to the lake. One can see deer roaming freely in the surrounding as well as other animals such as jackals, wolf, panthers, sloth bear, tigers, porcupines, etc. The wildlife sanctuary also houses a wide variety of reptiles.

For those looking for a peaceful environment should visit this lake. Tranquil surroundings accompanied by the rich flora and fauna promises an experience worth remembering. The view of sunset from all this lake is something that you cannot miss when visiting the lake. This lake is around 54 km away from Warangal.
