Tips
The Blue Lagoon in the Lhoist limestone quarry is a lake that is mainly fed by groundwater and whose water is so incredibly colored by the limestone. The lake is said to be about as deep as the area around the lake is high above its water level. Limestone was originally mined in the lake until the groundwater created the lake because the water was no longer pumped out. Of course, entering the quarry is prohibited, bathing etc in the lake is of course also prohibited.
