    Tips

    The Hrušovská reservoir is part of the Gabčíkovo Waterworks put into operation in 1992. It was in this area, in the vicinity of the former Hrušov settlement, that the Danube floodplain forests damaged the most - the left branches of the Danube and the forests from Kalinkov to Mliečno were flooded. Instead of an extensive and rugged branch system, there is now a large continuous body of water with an area of approximately 25 km2. Over time, the situation improves slightly by the fact that the so-called bird islands. They together with the shallow bay at Kalinkovo provide space for nesting and wintering of many species of waterfowl. The Hrušovská reservoir is part of the Danube Meadow Protected Bird Area.

      The reservoir, which was once created for the operation of the Gabcikovo hydropower plant, is now a paradise for water birds.
