Sartai, Lake in Zarasai District Municipality and Rokiškis District Municipality, Lithuania

Sartai is a lake in northeastern Lithuania, lying across the municipalities of Zarasai and Rokiškis. It is a long, narrow body of water with several islands and a shoreline that mixes open fields, patches of forest, and small villages.

The lake was formed at the end of the last ice age, when melting glaciers left deep hollows that filled with water. Over the centuries, it has shaped the lives of nearby villages, providing fish and a route for local trade.

Every year, the lake hosts a rowing competition that draws teams from across the region. The event brings a festive mood to the shore, with spectators gathering to watch the boats and enjoy the day by the water.

The lake is easy to reach by car from nearby towns, and the surrounding roads offer places to stop and enjoy the view. Visiting outside the summer season gives you more space and a chance to see the area in different light.

The lake is known for having several islands, some of which are large enough to hold trees and small buildings. On clear days, the water can appear in different shades, from dark blue to green, depending on the depth and the light.
