==Geography== Rakshastal covers a total area of {{Convert|250|km2}}, at an altitude of {{Convert|4575|m}}. Though absent of nearby [[grasslands]], the white cobbles, the hills and the island colored with dark red, and the deep blue lake water present another distinctive picture absent from many of the places more frequented by visitors.
