Its name refers to the clean and quiet waters, which reflect the landscape like a mirror. The lake is fed by numerous streams bringing snow- and ice-melt from the nearby mountains. The shore of the lake alternates between volcanic sand beaches, juncus, and rock walls.

Among the most common activities in the area are mountain biking, sport fishing, windsurfing, trekking, and BMX riding.
