Grüner See

Grüner See (Green Lake) is a stunningly beautiful natural park, situated in Styria, Austria. In winter, the lake evaporates and leaves a small, shallow pond that is used as a park for hikers. But as glaciers melt in the spring, the lake swallows the park creating a surreal underwater landscape. It's a popular spot for divers.
