Vodná nádrž Duchonka
Prašice
Duchonka is a popular recreation area near the village of Prašice, centered on a reservoir fringed by a sandy beach. In summer it invites swimming, boating and pedal boats, while the surroundings offer forest walks and cycling trails. Thanks to its peaceful setting in the foothills of the Považský Inovec, it's a favorite with families. Nearby Topoľčany Castle makes Duchonka a great base for exploring the northern Ponitrie region.
