The Blue Lake is a high mountain lake in the extreme southeast of the municipality of the city of Dornbirn in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg . It is located in the Blauseeli parcel as a subalpine rock pool lake at the foot of the Portlahorn at an altitude of about 1924  m above sea level. A. Below the lake is the Sünser Alpe . The area of ​​the lake changes depending on the rainfall and measures an average of around 800 m².
