Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Personally, the reservoir does not allow me. He is not dog friendly and seems very overweight. The bungalows are close together. Toddlers should not walk around outside without supervision, as there are no steep slopes other than a shield.

Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

On the north bank of the dam there are two beautiful bathing spots that are ideal for a rest or even as a destination for a tour. On the shore of the lake you can relax comfortably in the grass and refresh yourself while bathing in the cool water.

If you need a little more action, you can work out on the volleyball or soccer field. Children can get rid of their excess energy in the playground.

There is a restaurant or a kiosk on both beaches if you want to strengthen yourself. Free toilets are also available.
