Prírodné kúpalisko Rudava Malé Leváre
If you are looking for a place to go swimming in the summer, we recommend Prírodné kúpalisko Rudava, which spreads across the beautiful region of Záhorie, near the village of Malé Leváre. You can find this famous body of water just 10 km from Malacky. Enjoy a wonderful day out with your family. A relaxing summer vibe awaits you in a pleasant setting with clean water and well-maintained sandy beaches.
The vast lake was formed after gravel extraction, which began here in 1953. Groundwater began to seep into the excavated pit, turning this space into a popular summer retreat. Today, the body of water spans more than 50 hectares, while the adjacent shores and coniferous forest cover 98 hectares. Three sandy beaches have been created along the shores: the beach near the hunting lodge and two central beaches, which are regularly maintained by the village of Malé Leváre.
The natural lido consists of a large gravel lake surrounded by a pine forest. The water in the lake is clean and regularly monitored by the Public Health Authority (ÚVZ). Enjoy sunbathing on a blanket on the sandy beach. Rent a boat or a pedal boat and take a private sightseeing cruise around the lake.
On the beach, food stalls will take care of your hungry bellies by offering various tasty treats. You can also have a meal at the restaurant. After a good lunch, quench your thirst and treat yourself to a summer drink at one of the pubs. The entire complex is dog-friendly, which means you can bring your four-legged pet with you. Near the lake, there is also a campsite with an outdoor summer cinema, as well as a detached workplace of the Slovak National Gallery (SNG), Minimúzeum mamuta (Mammoth Mini-Museum). Through displayed 4,000-year-old fossils and audio samples, the exhibition will guide you through the site where mammoths used to live in the past.
After a great day spent at the natural lido, plan a trip to Malacky and discover the historical monuments of the town. Among the most visited places are Múzeum Michala Tillnera, Pálffyovský kaštieľ manor house, or Malacká synagóga. An interesting site is Kaplnka svätých schodov (Chapel of the Holy Stairs), which is primarily known for allowing believers to receive full indulgence upon visiting.
