Yamdrok-Tso Lake In Tibetan language the word Yamdrok means upper pasture and Tso refers to lake, thus literally Yamdroktso means Upper Pasture Lake. This beautiful turquoise blue lake is situated at an altitude of 4,441 meters above sea level. It is the largest freshwater lake at the south foot of the Himalayas with an area of about 678 square kilometers. It is quite a deep lake and the deepest point is almost 60 meters below the surface. It has no outlet and no permanent source of incoming water, however the snow melted from the surrounding mountains occasionally feed the lake.
