The Wild Lake or Savage Lake (Slovene: Divje jezero) is a lake near Idrija in Slovenia. The lake is also a karst spring and water flows from under the ground and through a steeply inclined tunnel. The tunnel has been explored to a depth of 160 metres. It is the source of Jezernica, a tributary of Idrijca and, at 55 metres long, is the shortest river in Slovenia. In 1967, the lake was protected as a natural monument. In 1972, it was arranged to be the first Slovenian natural museum.
