About

Białe Augustowskie (Polish: Jezioro Białe Augustowskie; Lithuanian: Baltis) - is a ribbon lake in Augustów. Other names: Białe Lake (White Lake) or Krechowieckie Lake.

The lake has an area of about 480 ha (1,200 acres). The lakeside is well developed with numerous bays (Orzechówka, Tartaczna, Wierszowiec) and spits (southern lakeside - Pień, Dąbek, Lisi Ogon, northern lakeside - Ostry Róg). A majority of the lakeside is high and barren, forested with creeping pine. There are four islands in the lake (with a total area of 1.5 ha (3.7 acres)).
