Danubian Flat

The Danube forms here a unique continental delta system of meanders and dead arms.

The drainage system of the southern area was (deliberately) significantly changed by the construction of the Gabčíkovo Dam on the Danube.

Wheat, sugar beets, sweet corn, vegetables and tobacco are grown here.

The area of Zlatná na Ostrove provides an extensive habitat for great bustards.

Excellent opportunities for summer recreation are provided by the lakes Zlaté piesky in Bratislava and the lakes Slnečné jazerá in Senec, or by thermal swimming pools in Dunajská Streda, Veľký Meder and Diakovce.
