The Aklažeris. This is a small lake of thermo – karstic origin that appeared when an ice lump broke away from a glacier and was covered with soil. The bogging process transformed the lake of almost 10 hectares (where people could swim only fifty years ago) into a transition mire. Silver crucian carps used to spawn in the lake and fishing boats would be moored along the shores. A lot of mountain arnicas and sand pinks grow on the slopes of the lake’s shores.
