Local Legend
There are several stories related to Binowskie Lake. According to one legend, it originated from a miraculous spring known for its extraordinary healing power. In a local tale, a certain castellan wanted to wash her sick child in the magical lake. She set out at dusk, and on her way to the water, she was attacked. The woman escaped with the child into the forest. Distressed by the difficult journey and pursued by bandits, she rested with the baby on a nearby forest boulder. The stone still exists today and is called the "Rocking Stone" (Głaz Kołyska). The bandits searched for her all night, thinking she carried money and jewels, but they did not find the castellan and her child. She calmly emerged from the forest in the morning and bathed the baby in the extraordinary water. The child recovered immediately.

Therefore, we distinguish between Glinna Wielka and Glinna Wąska, the southeastern branch connected by a narrow strait to the main reservoir. The Wężówka stream flows into the lake, and the main stream forming the Krzekna River flows out. Glinna Wielka has five bays.
