Once a popular picnic spot, Ramgarh Lake is a man-made lake located at a distance of 35 kilometers from the Jaipur City. The century old lake was cited as the highlight of the entire area once, but has scorched up due to the carelessness of the state. Ramgarh Lake’s claim to fame also comes from the fact that the rowing events in the 1982 Asian Games were held here. It also served as a hunting ground for the Maharajas of Jaipur at one time.
Wildlife Sanctuary
The lake is surrounded by thick jungles that are home to wild life including Neelgai, Lions, Chitals etc. & was declared as a Wildlife Sanctuary in 1982. There is also the ruin of an old fort and Jambwa Mata Temple nearby that are visited by tourists.
