Map of Sovata: Green Lake and Red Lake

At the northwestern end of the Ursu Lake, two smaller lakes were formed in the salt rock area: Lake Green with an area of 210 square meters and in the continuation Lake Red with an area of 1050 square meters. They are the age of Lake Ursu.
The Red Lake has been named after the color of the water, determined by tiny crabs, harmless to humans. They become even more red as the salinity of the water increases. Including Green Lake is red, just the mirroring of the surrounding vegetation makes it green. The mud from the bottom of the two lakes, rich in calcium sulphate and iron, is beneficial to the human body. So it is not surprising to see black people on the shores of the lake. There are beautiful rocks of salt near Red Lake.
