The Upper Forest Lake ( pl. Toporowy Staw Wyżni ) in Poland is a peat lake in the Seealm valley ( pl. Dolina Suchej Wody ) in the High Tatras . It is located in the municipality of Zakopane . The lake is located in a strictly protected peat landscape above the larger Lower Forest Lake ( Toporowy Staw Niżni ) and is not accessible. It is a refuge for numerous animal and plant species. The lake is expected to silt up in the future, like many other bodies of water in its vicinity that have already dried up. The Oswald-Balzer-Weg panorama road runs not far from the lake .
