Lake, which is within a 20-minute walk from Wawel Castle, has the unique distinction of being a hidden lagoon in an old mined quarry – indeed, it is so hidden some people think it’s a myth. Actually, it is relatively easy to get to on foot and is well worth the visit. Dominated by the sheer limestone cliffs and dense thick foliage of the surrounding area, Zakrzowek Lake is blessed with natural beauty.
