Location

Birendra Lake (Birendra Tal), is a freshwater lake located in Manaslu Glacier in Gorkha District in northern-central Nepal at an elevation of approximately 4500m.[1] The lake is named behind the Late King Birendra of Nepal. In 2024, an avalanche caused it to discharge a deluge of water over its banks. [2]
