Tăul dintre Brazi (between trees) is the only lake in Retezat that is not glacier. It is reached after a 45-minute walk in a beautiful area. The path is marked with a red point, a branch of the red triangle path. Tăul dintre Brazi has a special charm.

Surrounded by spruce and juniper woods, the shallow and clear water, of the bottom with black sludge, gives the place a wild impression. The lake, located at an altitude of 1710m, in the Galeș valley, as a bright mirror reflects the sky and surrounding nature. The mirroring of the trees in the water is perfect, and there is a tree truncated in the water, but the silence is full, wrapping the lake in an inexplicable mystery, giving rise to many legends. The route from where the trail goes to Tăul cu Brazi is:
