Kashmir of the west

Approximately 40 kilometres away from Silvassa is a picturesque water body so serene, it draws parallel with the Dal Lake of Kashmir. Formed by the Madhuvan Dam Reservoir, Dudhni Lake’s shimmering waters and lush green surroundings make for a captivating waterfront. The houseboats and Shikara rides only add to its nickname of Kashmir of the West.

The heart of Dudhni Lake lies in its Shikara boat rides. These beautifully decorated boats, reminiscent of their Kashmiri counterparts, glide gracefully across the water. Hop aboard for a leisurely 30-minute glide and drift along, taking in the panoramic views amidst the gentle ripples.

Row away on an adventure

Calmly sitting not your thing? Indulge in some adventure sports at the Water Sports Complex that offers you a range of water sports like Water Scooters, Water Jets, Rowing Boats, Kayaks and Canoes.

For those seeking adventure, negotiate with the boatman to visit one of the small islands within the lake. These hidden gems offer a secluded escape, where you can bask in solitude or share a picnic with loved ones. The island experience adds an extra layer of enchantment to your Dudhni Lake visit.
