The Green Lake is a particular natural phenomenon and one of Austria’s most beautiful bodies of water. It is located not far from Bruck an der Mur. In spring, the Green Lake fills with crystal-clear spring water and reveals its unique emerald green hue. Embedded in an incomparable mountain vista, it shows its most beautiful sides in May and June. Meadows, footpaths and benches are submerged deep under the surface of the water and gradually resurface. The lake may even disappear almost completely in winter, although it returns to its former glory in the following year.
Arrive for the greenest summer holidays imaginable. And it’s so easy. As a traffic hub, Bruck an der Mur is easy to reach by car or public transport.

Bike along the rivers, disappear into dense forests and hop off the saddle to take in the sights.
