A guest house near to Paonta Sahib Gurudwara. Location looks nice not sure about the service.

This place is at himachal-uttarakhand border. It's good to visit in winter season when migratory birds visit here. I like this place. There are also some other option to do here like boating, a resort with good view.

Beautiful place with beautiful view. 😊

Perfect spot for bird watching ✅

It is situated near the confluence of two perennial rivers Asan and Yamuna. This Lake is magnet for bird watchers. Since it attracts a large number of waterfowl, both waders and divers. Best time of visiting is October to March. Some of the birds that visit here are - Pochard, Northern Pintail, Mallard, Tufted duck. Also local migrants like Painted stork, open billed stork, night heron visits here quite often.

Calm and sirin place. Very good place for outing with kids. Lots of birds are available. My suggestion is to bring some quality camera. Otherwise you won't be able to take the clear picture of birds.

Beautiful sight seeing at any time you visit. This is an ideal place for bird lovers, Ornithologists and Naturalists alike, who can travel easily up to the Asan barrage, and see thousands of birds who have travelled miles to be there. To watch a mallard or a red crested pochard, gently swimming a few hundred yards in wilderness is indeed an unforgettable sight. Situated in the Uttarakhand-Himachal Pradesh border region in Doon Valley, northern India. Or situated at the confluence of the Eastern Yamuna Canal and the Asan River and about 11 km from Dakpathar, and 28 km. northwest of Dehradun From my pov, winter is the best preferred season to visit. A must visit place.

Excellent place for water birds. We saw a large flocks of bar headed geese, cormorants, ruddy shelduck, swifts and swallows. Other birds include tuffted duck, northern shoveler, pin tails. The barrage is very narrow, just enough for crossing 2 light 4 wheelers. Sunset is beautiful here. Worth visiting, especially in winter.

Beautiful and quiet &😍Calm 😍

If you are nature lover or a photographer who loves to click wildlife and nature this is a perfect place for you. This place is located in the district of Yamunanagar in the state of Haryana and in the country of India. There is also a barrage which controls and channelise the water coming from the mountain hills of Uttarakhand Yamuna river flows through this sanctuary

Most quite place i ever saw.. the view of assan barrage was awesome any time place

Asan Barrage is a great picnic spot near Dehradun and it's a perfect place if you are into bird watching. You can spend hours watching the rarest species of migratory birds at the barrage including Adwall, Wigeon, RC pochard, Tufted and Shoveller. Various adventure activities are also organised here and you can see experts skiing across the smooth waters of the barrage. The place also calls for some moments of relaxation when you have to do nothing, just sitting idle and contemplating the natural beauty that is widely spread across you. For the hungry stomachs, there is a small outlet which serves excellent Maggi at INR 50. You can also enjoy local fruit 'chakrota' here. The best months to visit the barrage are from October to March.

Very nice look... Wow

Beautiful place 😍😍

In January month only duck, monkey u can see. Entry ticket not useful bcoz inside nothing u can see escape of gardening & rooms. Boating is full enjoyment,which is in the front of..

This is good place if u want to spent some hours of evening doing following: watching sunset watching birds meditation Long talks If u r bridge lover and like peaceful clean places this is a good place to be. small places for sitting and chatting, can bring ur own food or corn is available road side. If u wish to go to a small restro near by can get fast food also.

simply nice place, if you plan to Ponata Sahib then should not miss this place within 5km. ...before 9am Bird lovers would love this place

It was good experience.. We went in the evening time, there were many birds, I liked it very much, its natural beauty.

It is a nice picnic spot and good place to see birds. Best time to visit in winter ❄️

Its awesome and lovely place with a lake nestled amidst mountains on one side and highlands on the other. It has a superb 180⁰ panoramic view out there which will surely rejuvenate you. Dancing and playing migratory birds are noteworthy to see and observe. Remember to take your binoculars to watch them closely as viewing platform is somewhat far from them. Boating is also available here adjoining a park and resort. There's a canteen as well in the resort premises from where you can get some snacks and beverages to fill up your tummy and get going! 🙂🙂🤗🤗 Do have a visit and you'd surely like to visit it again and stay over here for a night for a restful and peaceful experience. 😊😊

Grt experience n awesome place to have chill in between river 4 star

Good place for outing, boating also available for 300 RS per boat and 20 rs entry fees....

Nyc place you can visite their its too much beautiful place for enjoying sdpot

This wetland is famous for various migratory birds, like Rudy shelduck , bar- headed geese, heron , ibis , stork , pochard, cormorant etc.. One thing what concern me is the illegal killing of these birds. If you talk to locals nearby they will admit that they are killing these birds for meat. Forest department should take necessary steps.. Hope this will be safe place for these birds.

Visit at best time to see birds and for boating

Cause this is my birth place and here environment so fresh

Very nice place to see the bird sanctuary as this is the First Sanctuary established in the year 2005 where you can find the migratory birds during November to March season as this is the winter capital for these birds. You can also do the boating here and ofcourse have some snacks here...

The place is beautiful but for bird watching, summers is not the time. Winter is the best time for bird watching. Boating facility is also there.

This place should be developed more to attract people. Some benches must be installed near the bank and few more eatery should be opened.

The place is okay. There is not much to look or explore here. Can be a good outing for family as boating is there. You can also take a glimpse of some rare birds here

many bird come here from far away and outside the india. a good restaurant is nearby and rest house to relax.

Love
