Sestrže Lake

Where to find it: among the fields in Sestrže
Size: 150 ha
Depth: 1 - 4 m

Sestrže Lake or Medvedce Reservoir is a water reservoir for retaining the high waters of Polskava. It is a special conservation area, a Natura 2000 site and a natural value of national importance.

It is an ecologically important area, serves as a fish farm and, together with the surrounding floodplain forests, has the status of an internationally important area for birds.

Ten species of amphibians, 49 species of dragonflies, more than 200 species of birds and many rare wetland and aquatic plants live here. Over 7,000 birds live here in a given period.

I recommend it to bird watching lovers.

On the other side of the pond, you can see the shooting range, from where the sound of shooting comes. The shooting range is 2.4 km or 1.44 miles away.
