Bešeňová between thermal water and travertine – compare hotels

Bešeňová combines natural geothermal water, travertine cascades, sacred buildings and paths along the reservoir. The Vodný park Bešeňová water park combines natural geothermal water with modern water attractions. The thermal water in the water park comes from a depth of more than 2,000 metres and is rich in minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium and iron.

Wellness

The water park therefore brings together two clearly defined sides of the destination: thermal water from great depths and modern water attractions. Its mineral composition includes calcium, magnesium, sodium and iron. The origin at a depth of more than 2,000 metres is just as much part of the water’s profile as its geothermal nature.

Nature

Bešeňovské travertíny includes an abandoned quarry several hundred metres north of Bešeňová, an area of 3.18 hectares and travertine cascades. Mineral water flows continuously over the cascades, giving the rock formations a natural sheen. At the edge of the quarry stands a well-known chapel where visitors can view the world-famous golden Bešeňovský travertine. The location, area, water flow and visible rock formations are different elements of the same site.

Culture

Several clearly distinct buildings also form part of Bešeňová’s townscape. The Church of the Holy Trinity, “Kostol Najsvätejšej Trojice”, was built in 2001 on the site of a smaller church dating from 1850. Its pyramid-shaped form makes it noteworthy. Kaštieľ Mitošiny, on the other hand, is privately owned and not open to the public; it can only be viewed from the adjoining road.

Water and paths

A walk along the shore of the Vodná nádrž Bešeňová reservoir offers views of the water. The paved path along the shore is used by cyclists and inline skaters. Above Bešeňová, the Borovica nad Bešeňovou stands in the meadows, a solitary pine offering views of the surrounding landscape.

Cycling

A themed cycling route follows the traces of the villages flooded by Liptovská Mara. At the same time, it provides information about the water management project that permanently changed the development of the entire region.

For an overnight stay in Bešeňová, you can compare hotel offers on the respective offer pages. Booking and cancellation conditions are also worth reviewing before you decide. In addition, pay attention to which services are included in the price and which price components are listed separately. For a transparent comparison, this information should be just as clearly identifiable as the conditions for changes and cancellation. Check the details directly on the respective offer page and compare only information that is actually listed there. This keeps the differences between the individual offers transparent before you decide.
