Parashar Lake (also spelled Prashar Lake) is a freshwater lake located at an elevation of 2,730 metres (8,960 ft) in the Mandi district of Himachal Pradesh, India. It lies 49 km (30 mi) east of the town of Mandi, and has a three storied pagoda-like temple dedicated to the sage Parashara situated on its bank. It contains a floating island.
The lake was considered sacred by the sage Parashara, who meditated here. The temple was built in the 14th century by Raja Ban Sen of Mandi in honor of the sage and thus, considering the Himachali architecture, the lake was named after him.
The maximum depth of the lake remains unknown.
