Lonely Planet review for Phewa Tal

Spreading majestically westwards from Pokhara, Phewa Tal is the second-largest lake in Nepal. On calm days, the mountains of the Annapurna Range are perfectly reflected in the mirrored surface of the tal. Away from the shore, the water is clean and deep and the dense forest along the south side of the lake provides shelter for brilliant white egrets. The best way to appreciate Phewa Tal is by rowboat.

Many people walk or cycle around the lakeshore - the trek up to the World Peace Pagoda affords breathtaking views over the tal and the mountains beyond.

    Pokhara, during monsoon time

    ilhabelabrazil recommends this,

    What if your only avaliable time is during Nepal Off season?

    Just travel. There are wonders to appreciate. Pokhara is an oasis if you are travelling from Kathmandu. You may not see the mountains everyday, but if you wake up very early, lets say 5 am, after a rainy night, you will see them for an hour or so.

    Its a religious experience.
