On October 25, 2014, Green Lake was shown on the television show ORF 9. The lake was included in the nine most beautiful places in Austria according to the choice of viewers, and by the jury choice - as the most beautiful little-known place in Austria. This discovery caused an international tourist movement in 2015.
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.
