About Lakya Dam
Offering a serene and picturesque environment, the Lakya Dam is a beautiful place to visit that is situated 2 km from Kundremukh. It was built as a check dam, designed primarily for depositing waste materials from mining operations. Kudremukh Ore Company Ltd. constructed the dam across the Lakya River, a tributary of the Bhadra.
Initially serving the purpose of managing waste from mining activities, in 2005, due to environmental concerns, mining operations ceased.
