In winter, the water in the lake freezes, and it turns into the most beautiful ice rink, where ice is shining in blue and emerald color. On sunny days, the surface of the lake reflects the mount Pribits as a mirror.
Grüner See is rightfully considered one of the wonders of Austria. The lake is often called the Emerald Lake because of the special shade of its water. Hiking trails of different lengths and difficulties are arranged along the shores of the lake. Stunning views are along these trails. Diving on the lake is one of the most unusual tourist attractions in Austria.
