Where to go on a trip Želovce

If you are among those who love the water and enjoy every moment in it to the fullest, and you currently find yourself near Veľký Krtíš, we definitely recommend cooling your body, warmed by the summer sun, in the clean waters of Bio kúpalisko Krtko. You will find it on Škultétyho ulica street opposite the playground. You can park your car directly in front of the entrance to the lido premises in a free car park.

After entering the area, you will feel like you are at a regular lido. Classic pools for swimmers and children lined with washed concrete paving, a neat pathway paved with Danube gravel, and a nice, well-maintained lawn where you can spread out your blanket and belongings. A few plastic loungers and parasols enhance the comfort of visitors to the lido.

However, the uniqueness of the lido is highlighted by the word bio. That is why the lido is well-known and sought after not only by locals, but also by tourists. The water in the pools is pumped from a well. It is not thermal, but it has a natural temperature and contains no chemicals. You might be asking yourself how it is possible to keep the water clean without adding chlorine. Quite simply. The role of a natural water purifier is fulfilled by special plants, algae, and bacteria, as well as the special gravel bed of the filtration pond. Outflowing water thus poses no burden on the environment. At the same time, this offers a benefit for swimming visitors: their skin is not exposed to any chemical substances that could trigger an allergic reaction.

Facilities at the lido naturally include changing rooms, showers, and restrooms. Children will enjoy the children's playground and two water toboggans, which, although not very long, are used all the more intensively. Adults have the opportunity to spend their leisure time playing volleyball or popular mini-golf. If hunger or thirst strikes during the day, you can satisfy it at one of the fast-food stalls offering standard fast-food fare and drinks. In addition to the lido, the municipal sports facilities management also offers the use of a sauna and a fitness center. Admission prices are not high, and local residents enjoy special discounts.

If you decide to visit this lido, you will certainly not be disappointed. Likewise, you might be thrilled by other attractions in Veľký Krtíš. You can put on your hiking boots and head to hrad Modrý Kameň, which is not such a typical castle. It is rather a manor house surrounded by the remains of castle foundations. Not only believers will appreciate the opportunity to walk past the chapels on Kalvária v Modrom Kameni. Playing at the Military Paintball venue is a little more painful, yet all the more fun. In the district, it is also worth visiting Rozhľadňa na Prašnom vrchu lookout tower, from where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.

We believe that swimming in this natural lido will energize you so much that you will want to keep coming back. To truly enjoy your stay to the fullest, we recommend booking accommodation near Bio kúpalisko Krtko. It is entirely up to you whether you come for a holiday with your family and choose one of the apartments in Veľký Krtíš as your "refuge," or, depending on your budget, afford to stay longer in private accommodation in Veľký Krtíš. We will gladly assist you.

In the second smallest town in Slovakia, you can find remarkable monuments. The town of Modrý Kameň is located in the Banskobystrický kraj region, in the Veľký Krtíš district. In addition to its significant castle complex, which almost every Slovak knows, do not miss a tour of the Baroque mansion or the beautiful 18th-century Calvary.

If you are interested and want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the town, you can pause and breathe in the fresh air, or combine your walk with a prayer at the Calvary in Modrý Kameň. It is located on the edge of the town, in an area referred to as Modrokamenská lesostep. It is a nature reserve where you can observe various heat-loving steppe and forest communities of the Krupinská planina. You can get to the Calvary via Pánska cesta or Zámocká street. From here, a moderately rising bumpy forest path leads.

The Calvary reportedly originated in the early 18th century when Count Pavol Balaš had it built. Even back then, it consisted of 5 stations depicting purgatory, the Last Judgment, the resurrection of Christ, the guardian angel, and the blessed Virgin depicting the refuge of sinners. This Calvary gradually expanded and currently consists of 2 chapels and 10 stations of the Stations of the Cross. The central structure is an open rectangular chapel with a sculptural group of Christ on the cross and two other crosses with the thieves. When walking through this Calvary, your gaze will certainly fall upon a 6-meter-high cross created in 1863 to commemorate the visit of this place by Cardinal Ján Sczitovský. Art lovers will be enthused by many late-Baroque elements.

The Calvary is a popular place especially for mothers who want to escape the worries of everyday life. Tourists also put on their hiking boots and, from the elevation where it is located, fully enjoy views of the town and nature. Those who are indifferent to the values of faith can come here for a pilgrimage and honor the Holy Cross and Our Lady of Sorrows.

If you like exploring history, also head to the nearby attraction hrad Modrý Kameň. Very good, chemically untreated water will cool you down during the summer in the pools of the Krtko bio swimming pool. If you crave relaxation in a sauna or the opportunity to have fun on water slides, direct your steps to Aquathermal Strehová. You can also have fun during a game of Military Paintball. From this experience, you might take away some bruise on your body.

Sometimes it takes a bit more time for spiritual renewal than just one day. So that you can stay longer, we recommend booking accommodation near the Calvary in Modrý Kameň.
