Wonderful place to visit on Pohorje. It's a hidden gem, the only difficulty is the roads to get there are horrible. It takes an hour from Maribor. There is a parking lot and then a pathway to walk about 20 minutes at most to get to the lake. Not many people go so it's like it's your own lake.

Mountain biking

Black Lake is really black! The water in it is crystal clear, but at the bottom of the lake, organic waste from plants and animals accumulates and creates a thick layer of dark mud, which gives the lake its characteristic color. It is located in a swampy area in the middle of the Pohorje forest and represents a pleasant excursion point, to which a nice path leads from the direction of Dom na Osankarici over wooden footbridges. The lake area is protected as a natural monument.
