Accommodation in Nitrianske Rudno: Reservoir, Nature and Culture

Nitrianske Rudno combines the reservoir with marked trails, protected natural areas and regional culture. Along the water, a nature trail for ordinary visitors runs for 1,330 m along the existing boundary of the reservoir. The information panels provide information about water bodies, the climate, the history of the municipality and the reservoir's features.

Nature

The cadastral territory of Nitrianske Rudno includes the Rokoš National Nature Reserve. Since 1974, the protected area has been subject to the highest, fifth level of nature protection. Rokoš is the only place in the Western Carpathians where Scots pine and downy oak grow side by side. As a result, montane and xerothermic vegetation overlap there.

A hiking trail in Nitrianske Rudno also passes through beech, pine and oak forests as well as meadows. Along the way, it showcases rock formations and offers views of the Rudnianska Valley. Three marked hiking trails also lead from Nitrianske Rudno to Košútova skala and Rokoš, Čierny vrch and Boškovie laz.

Water and Leisure

The recreational area at the Nitrianske Rudno Reservoir includes a public beach area and a car camping site with additional facilities. During the summer months, the reservoir is used for recreation; during the fishing seasons, it is used for sport fishing. Swimming and water sports are also possible at the reservoir in summer.

The reservoir also provides space for cultural events, concerts and car and motorcycle gatherings. This means that different uses coexist on the same body of water: summer recreation, sport fishing, water sports and events.
