'Baghsar' is a
lake situated at 975 m above sea-level in the Samahni valley. The lake is roughly half a kilometre long and overlooks the valley of
Bandala. The lake is a popular tourist destination.
Many local and migratory birds, especially ducks and geese, inhabit the lake. The lake is habitat to
water lilies, and the surrounding hills are covered by cheerh, or
pine trees and
lily flowers.
Moghul Fort overlooks the lake from the top of a hill. This four story structure of
granite has played important roles in history during the times of
Ahmed Shah Abdali,
Ranjit Singh and
Gulab Singh. It is said that the Mughal Emperor Janghir, on his way back from the
Kashmir Valley, fell ill and ultimately died in this fort.
