It is located in the Mengusovská dolina valley (Mengsdorf Valley) and its height is 1494 m above sea level. Its area is 6.87 hectares, it measures about 380 × 250 m and is up to 17.6 m deep. The lake is home to native brown trout. The only surface tributary is the Ľadový potok (Eisbach) in the east, the only outflow is the Krupá in the south, which further downstream joins the Hincov potok to form the Poprad River. The lake is frozen over on average from around mid-November to mid-May. There are two mountain huts on the northern shore of the lake, the Majláthova chata (Majláthhütte) and the Chata pri Popradskom plese (lit. Hut on Lake Popper).

The Popradske pleso (Poppersee) is one of the most beautiful water pearls in the High Tatras. It is located in the Mengusovská dolina valley (German Mengsdorfer valley) and its height is 1494 m a.m. A nice place to stay, loneliness should not be expected here on weekends, it is very well visited by tourists, which is not surprising. ;-)

Very beautiful lake, but not recommended in August and when the weather is nice, as it overflows unrestrainedly. Tip: it is best to come in the evening when it has rained during the day.
