The lakes are arranged for the needs of tourism at the confluence of Mala and Velika Pišnica. At the confluence there is an even smaller natural canyon and a somewhat hidden Kranjska Gora Hydroelectric Power Plant.[1]

There are walking paths around Jasna, and the forest path along the Mala Pišnica valley, which was abandoned after the earthquake in 1980, has its beginnings here.[2] Next to the lake, in addition to the apartments, there is also a playground and a bronze statue of an Ibex on a natural rock, created between 1986 and 1988 by the sculptor Stojan Batič.
