Rezerwat przyrody Jeziorko Daisy, Nature reserve in Lower Silesia, Poland.
Jeziorko Daisy is a nature reserve in Lower Silesia that consists of a flooded limestone quarry with greenish water reaching depths of 23 meters (75 feet). The water sits surrounded by beech forest that covers about 7 square kilometers of the protected area.
The area was used for limestone extraction beginning in 1870 by the Hochberg family, resulting in two lime kilns on the site. One of these kilns was later converted into a hunting lodge by Princess Daisy.
The reserve is named after Princess Daisy, who built a hunting lodge on the grounds, and her legacy remains part of the place's local identity today. Visitors can walk marked paths and learn about geological formations and plant species at different stops along the way.
Visitors should park their vehicles at designated spots in Lubiechów and use the marked hiking trails to reach the lake and the protected area. The paths allow you to explore the grounds safely and in an organized way without disturbing the delicate nature.
The lake bottom is covered with sediment layers and dead trees that form a false floor, making diving activities dangerous due to potential wall collapses. This unstable underwater structure makes the water hazardous for inexperienced divers.
