Rama Lake (Urdu: راما سر جھیل) is a lake situated near Astore in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. It is located within the Astore Valley, which is characterized by a light covering of oak trees and other vegetation. As of 2013, the region has experienced significant deforestation, low average rainfall, and reduced vegetation, largely due to widespread illegal logging practices.
