The Hindi word "Satsar" means "the seven lakes." Thus, as implied by its name, the lake is a confluence of seven lakes that are located at great altitudes. The lake is famous for its spectacular beauty, which includes views of the Himalayan Mountains' steep slopes and picturesque green meadows with a diversity of Flora and Fauna, where shepherds are frequently sighted.
The area is surrounded by thick vegetation, especially during the summer, making it the ideal location for camping among tourists. Tourists who pitch tents to enjoy the sunny scenery and the peace of the starry evenings also happen to make camping one of the most popular activities.
