Lake Trosten

Lake Trosten is a lake of moraine-glacial origin. The total area of the water surface is 5.28 square kilometers, its length is 3.5 kilometers, and its width is 2.1 kilometers. The lake is not deep. The greatest depth is 3.5 meters, and the average is 1.1 meters. Currently, the lake is slowly growing, and around it increases the area of the swamp.

On the shore of the lake grows a swamp stone, included in the Red Book.
