Removes water? No, but you can make every unit in your map flying, so that they can move above it, but with a low height to add this flare you seek. In order to prevent attacking issues, use this trigger:

• Tr
• Events
  • Unit - A unit enters (Playable Map Area)
• Conditions
  • ((Triggering unit) is a Flying unit) Equal to False
• Actions
  • Unit - Add Crow Form to (Triggering unit)
  • Unit - Remove Crow Form from (Triggering unit)
  • Animation - Change (Triggering unit)'s fly height to X at 0.00

• Trig
• Events
  • Map Initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable Map Area) matching ((Matching unit) is a Flying unit) Equal to False) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Unit - Add Crow Form to (Picked unit)
      • Unit - Remove Crow Form from (Picked unit)
      • Animation - Change (Picked unit)'s fly height to X at 0.00

The pathability for water gets written to the base pathing map which is unmutable (can not be altered ingame).
Water is part of the terrain mesh. Although it can not be altered directly you can probably lower it below the terrain using terrain deformations (which will make the map not playable by MAC users).

okay...
can i then make the terrain go up so there'll be a path or something???

 

[Dr Super Good]

You will need to change the pathability at the points to pathable as the terrain has nothing to do with the pathability of a point.

remove the water visibly? And then walk on it? Or you can see it and still can walk on it?

 

[dosehunter]

no i wanted to ''dry it out'' so there would be just ground

Oh, that's what you meant. Use custom Water model, from http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/terrain-board-267/ultimate-terraining-map-3-0-a-45316/. There is one under the "Water" section of the Doodads category. Make this model a destructible in your map and use Destructible - Pick every destructible in (Region) and do (Actions) -> Destructible - Kill (Picked Destructible) and Destructible - Remove (Picked destructible).
