About this trek
Tiger Lake
Tiger Lake is a short guided village-and-hill walk in the Aravalli hills northwest of Udaipur, starting at Morwania village. The path crosses crop fields and small settlements, with a refreshment halt midway, then climbs for about 15 minutes to a hilltop above the lake. From the top you see Tiger Lake, Udaipur city and the villages you walked through. Operators report 2 to 3 hours and about 8 km, and it suits beginners and families.

Questions

How long is the Tiger Lake trek and how hard is it?
Trodly describes a 3-hour guided hike covering about 8 km with one 15-minute moderately steep climb; a blogger calls it easy and quotes 2 to 3 hours.
Where does the Tiger Lake hike start?
At Morwania village in Sajjangarh, north-west of Udaipur, about 20-30 minutes by road from the city. Operators meet at Ganesh Ghati in Udaipur and a local guide joins at the village.
