Nari Yumco
拿日雍错
The largest highland lake in Cona, covering about 58 square km, with brilliant blue waters and reflected snowy peaks. Its Tibetan name means “lake of many riches.”
Nari Yumco lies about 30 km north of Cona town at a lake surface elevation of about 4,700 meters. Covering about 58 square km, it is the largest lake in Cona and is regarded as a sacred lake. The water is a deep blue, surrounded by pastures and snowy peaks, and on clear days the reflections are like a mirror. In summer, yaks and sheep graze along the shore. There are no paid facilities at the lake. You can drive there yourself, and a visit takes about 1 to 2 hours. At high altitude the wind is strong and UV exposure is intense, so protect yourself from sun and cold and watch for altitude sickness.
