Surwal Lake
सुरवाल झील
A seasonal lake on the outskirts of Sawai Madhopur, where migratory birds such as flamingos and bar-headed geese gather in winter, making it a birdwatching stop between safaris.
Surwal Lake lies about 10–15 km outside Sawai Madhopur, among villages and farmland. The lake surface is calm, and the sunset views are lovely. From October to February, migratory birds are most abundant, including pelicans, bar-headed geese and various waders, with flamingos occasionally seen. Water levels are very low in summer. Entry is free. Reach the lake by hired car or motorbike, and schedule your visit to avoid the afternoon safari session. There are no facilities locally, so bring your own drinking water.
