Green whirlpool
Zeleni vir is a mountain lake located in the Mlječni doli, at an altitude of 1820 meters. This clear lake with a characteristic green color is supplied with water from snow, rain and a small spring, making it an important natural reservoir in the central part of Durmitor.
It is located about a kilometer from the highest peak of Durmitor, Bobotov Kuk, at 2028 meters above sea level. The green whirlpool is 50 meters long, 40 meters wide and up to 2 meters deep. This location is an indispensable resting place for hikers on the demanding trail that leads from Black Lake through the Old Katun Lokvica, Ledena Pećina and Sedlo to Zeleni Vir and the peak of Bobotov Kuk.
