About Ranchi:
Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand, sits on the Chotanagpur Plateau and is known for its relatively cool climate and surrounding natural landscapes. About an hour’s drive from the city lies Patratu Lake, a man-made reservoir formed by the damming of the Nalkari River. The lake is set in a valley bordered by low hills and forested patches, and the route to the lake—especially via Pithoria—is marked by hairpin bends and distant views of water and terrain. Patratu has, over time, become a common leisure spot for city residents and a modest draw for those visiting Ranchi. Seasonal bird migrations during the colder months add to its ecological character.
About the Pontoon Boat Ride in Ranchi:
Pontoon boat rides operate regularly on the lake, offering short 20-minute trips on wide, flat-bottomed boats. The boats are driven by qualified drivers and equipped with life jackets for each passenger. The activity does not require any prior experience and is appropriate for both individuals and small groups. The propulsion across the still water is gradual and steady, making the journey about admiring the lake's grandeur rather than seeking thrills. It is a simple outing—quiet, measured, and short in duration—that appeals mostly to people seeking a brief respite in nature.
