Laknavaram Lake
లక్నవరం సరస్సు
An ancient Kakatiya reservoir surrounded by hills and forest. A suspension bridge across the lake to its islands is a popular photo spot in Telangana.
Laknavaram Lake is an irrigation reservoir built by the Kakatiya dynasty in the 13th century. More than ten small islands dot the lake, surrounded by hills and deciduous forest. A pedestrian suspension bridge about 160 meters long connects the islands, offering views over the lake. On the islands are state tourism department wooden cabins for overnight stays, a restaurant, and facilities for boating and kayaking. The lake is about 70 kilometers from Warangal and is often combined with the Ramappa Temple on the same day trip. Local visitors are numerous on weekends, and the bridge and boat rides charge small fees.
