Long Overview:
The 5km lake circuit is pleasant in the early morning when you can observe the kingfishers. One must be aware of a fascinating phenomenon called 'Brachem Spectre' . A very lucky person can see his shadow on the clouds with a rainbow halo, when sun is behind and cloud and mist is in his front.. The views from Pillar Rocks a 7km hike is also excellent.
