Introduction to Arekere Lake

If you're looking for a slice of tranquility amidst the bustling urban landscape of Bangalore, not Goa, then Arekere Lake is a hidden gem you shouldn't miss. Tucked away in the Arekere-Hulimavu area, this lake is a testament to the city's forgotten natural beauty. Originally spanning 37 acres, Arekere Lake is now a shadow of its former self, reduced to about 25 acres due to encroachment and urbanization. Despite its struggles, the lake retains a certain charm, bounded by Bannerghatta Road to the west and Hulimavu Main Road to the south.As you walk along the lake's perimeter, the sounds of the city fade away, replaced by the gentle lapping of water against the shore and the chirping of birds. The air is thick with the scent of blooming flowers and the earthy smell of wet soil. Though it's a far cry from its pristine past, Arekere Lake still offers a serene escape, especially with the efforts of local residents who are working tirelessly to restore its former glory. Here, you can witness the resilience of nature and the community's determination to preserve it.
