    Translated it is the lake of blue ice water. The lake is fed by meltwater from the surrounding glaciers. It gets its blue color from stone particles, but it's not one blue, but thousands of shades of blue and turquoise that you can observe here throughout the day. An overnight stay is therefore worthwhile to be able to see all the shades of colour. You can even go for a swim in the lake if you dare. Of course the water is icy, but refreshing. As soon as you get pain in your extremities or head, you should leave the water.

      Nice hike. Only small inclines in between, but the scree field requires sure-footedness and sturdy shoes.

        Flat and easy walk. Mostly stone all the way.
