Lakes and dams Zeleneč

In the Malé Karpaty mountains, set in the picturesque nature of the Trnava Region, you will find the protected area Trnavské rybníky in the district of Trnava. Its area spans more than 38 hectares and extends into the cadastral territories of the village of Hrnčiarovce nad Parnou as well as the city of Trnava. Since 1974, when the area was declared protected, the 3rd and 4th levels of nature protection have applied here. The subject of protection is waterfowl and aquatic biocenoses.

Around Trnavské rybníky, you can spot approximately 200 species of birds, as many as 150 of which are protected species. Some of them are truly very rare, and it is difficult to see them anywhere else. Likewise, there is an interesting composition of flora here, which, together with the environment and climate, creates perfect conditions of symbiosis for nesting birds. Listening to the rustling of the surrounding remnants of the floodplain forest, the sounds of birdlife, and watching the calm water surface at the same time is truly very soothing. That is likely one of the reasons why the place is a frequent destination for walks.

You can take these walks along a network of surrounding dirt paths and trails. When the ground is warm, bring a blanket with you and spread it out on the grassy banks. Whether you have a picnic directly or just relax while reading a book is up to you. Especially in autumn, it is fascinating to watch the beautifully colored trees stretching along the banks and casting fabulous colorful reflections on the water surface. Nature is the best painter, and its paintings are different every day, never the same, and always breathtaking.

Your steps can lead you to the nearby local park. There, it is not unusual to meet active individuals on roller skates or bicycles. Locals often come here for a run as well, saying it clears their heads wonderfully. However, Trnavské rybníky is not the only place you can visit during your stay in Trnava. Dóm sv. Mikuláša or Katedrála sv. Jána Krstiteľa also have their charm. The building of Galéria Jána Koniarka – Kopplova vila is also architecturally beautifully designed.

Slnečné jazerá (Sun Lakes) or Senecké jazerá are among the most visited recreation centers in Slovakia. We can find them in the town of Senec. Every year, this location is visited by many families with children, young active holidaymakers, and seniors. The advantage is the low entrance fee, the option to purchase a seasonal pass, and a number of attractions in the area. Slnečné jazerá in Senec are also popular among fishermen, who can pursue their hobby here without any worries.

The lakes were artificially created in 1845, when five separate lakes were formed after gravel dredging. These later merged into one water area with an area of 120 hectares and a depth of up to 12 meters. Since 1919, the place began to be used as a natural swimming area. At that time, it was also known by the name Slovenské Tahiti (Slovak Tahiti).

Today, the resort is divided into three zones - northern, southern, and eastern. The northern side is especially suitable for families with children, as there is an Aquathermal Senec water park with water attractions and a playground for children. However, you will find various attractions for active holidaymakers in every part. You will appreciate the beach volleyball courts, football fields, and tennis courts.

Water sports are a matter of course here. You can practice Zumba and yoga, or explore the surroundings faster on scooters, which you can rent. During the summer, various musical events held directly on the premises are also very popular.

You don't have to go far for other points of interest.
