9. Camping at Pangarh Lake
Pangarh Lake The family who own the castle also own the land on the western bank of Pangarh lake and originally used it as a hunting lodge. They have now added luxury tents and use it as an interesting alternative to staying at the castle. We were offered various different means of travelling the 12 kms to get to Pangarh Lake - riding, cycling, jeep or walking. A few of us decided to walk at least as far as the lunch stop en route. It was a really enjoyable amble with KP happily bird spotting along the way. We stopped by another lovely lake where our lunch magically appeared! Only Louise decided to finish the journey on foot. When we reached the camp our driver leapt out of the jeep and disappeared down the hill. As we approached, there was our driver doubling up as one of the musicians!! Now there are ten luxury tents with en-suite facilities. We were expecting it to be really cold at night but in fact it was warmer than at the castle.
