Zakrzówek, Limestone quarry and water reservoir in Kraków, Poland.

The Zakrzówek reservoir contains two connected water bodies surrounded by white limestone cliffs reaching depths of up to 32 meters.

The limestone quarry ceased operations in 1990 when groundwater filled the excavation site, creating the current water reservoir.

The site serves as a training ground for diving enthusiasts who can explore submerged objects including cars, boats, and old mining equipment.

The area includes five floating pools of varying depths, walking paths, observation points, and workout zones accessible from Tuesday to Sunday.

The water maintains a turquoise color due to the limestone deposits, while the surrounding rocks host numerous climbing routes with permanent protection.
