Unkal Lake — Attraction in Karnataka

A great place to spend time with family and friends! The Unkal Lake and garder is the place where you can find real peace and happiness. The place is totally covered with greenery and we can see many view points there so that we can enjoy the lake view from there and can feel the atmosphere. The lake and garden is really wonderful but I suggest to maintain the Unkal Lake more as the water seems to be polluted, and also request each and everyone (including me) to maintain the place and follow the rules so that the lake and garden look better and it's our own responsibility to maintain our area and surroundings clean including public parks, gardens and more. My overall experience was pretty good and I really enjoyed a lot. Most recommended garden to visit for the one who are new to Hubballi, and i recommend those too who haven't visited this place.

There are even many more kids playable area so that kids can enjoy and have fun. Best walking trails are available for morning and evening walks and you'll really enjoy it.

Huge Parking facility is also available vehicle parking. The ticket is Rs.10 per person and Rs.5 for vehicle (the day I visited). * Online Payment Option is not available. * No entry ticket and vehicle parking ticket were provided by the ticket counter agent, who was unresponsive. Overall my experience for this visit was worth watching and I really enjoyed here!

Unkal Lake in Hubli is a scenic spot that beautifully combines natural beauty with cultural heritage. As one of the oldest and most popular attractions in the area, it offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The lake's serene environment is perfect for picnics, leisurely walks, and enjoying breathtaking sunsets.

A key highlight of Unkal Lake is the statue of Swami Vivekananda situated on a small island in the middle of the lake, which adds a spiritual and historical dimension to the visit. The well-maintained gardens surrounding the lake are ideal for families and nature enthusiasts, providing a lush green backdrop for relaxation and recreation.

Boating facilities are available, allowing visitors to experience the lake from a different perspective. The cool breeze and the gentle sway of the boat create a calming experience that is both refreshing and memorable. Additionally, the lake is a haven for bird watchers, with various species of birds frequenting the area.

Despite its many attractions, some areas of Unkal Lake could benefit from better maintenance, particularly the cleanliness of the water and surrounding areas. However, ongoing efforts by local authorities to improve facilities and infrastructure are promising.

Overall, Unkal Lake is a delightful destination that offers a peaceful retreat and a touch of cultural enrichment, making it a must-visit for...

I am a resident of Jaipur and have been visiting lake for long walks ever since childhood. I have seen people from all walks of life come to lake for morning and evening walks. I like to walk the talk here with friends and family. The environment of the lake is very conducive for deep introspection. Watching the sunrise or sunset gives me an exhilarating experience and makes me feel one with God and Nature. Of late you can see the water shimmering like silver if you go around 5:30 or 6:00 pm and makes the whole area look so calm and serene and beautiful. At the other end of the lake there is now a Buddha Park with a very beautiful calm and serene statue of Lord Buddha in sitting pose. At the entrance you will find the lake club, restaurant, lots of vendors selling eatables, and a big play zone for kids where you can enjoy with kids. Also, there are ducks in the lake which you can feed or go for a boat ride. There are plenty of things to do here. It has become an activity centre for people. All in all an...
