Glacial lake from the group of Caterpillar Track in the High Tatras. Located at an altitude of 1624 m a.s.l. in the ice circus. Is the largest lake in the Gąsienicowa Valley. The water in it is transparent, has a sapphire color. It has a small (310 m²) islet with dwarf mountain pine. It was planned to build the mausoleum of Juliusz Słowacki on it in 1909 but as a result of protests of nature conservation activists the idea was not implemented. From the north, the Czarny Gąsienicowy Stream flows from the rocky threshold. The lake was the subject of many paintings by Alfred Schouppé, Wojciech Gerson, Leon Wyczółkowski and others.
