Holčíkovce on Veľká Domaša

Holčíkovce is located in the southern part of the Ondavská vrchovina, in the valley of the Ondalík stream and on the eastern shore of the Veľká Domaša reservoir. The location connects the village with a landscape in which the water, the shoreline and various forms of water sports play a visible role.

History

The oldest surviving written references to Holčíkovce can be found in documents issued by King Sigismund in 1408 and 1410. These documents concern the donation of the Stropkov estate – and therefore also this village – to the noblemen of Perín. The historical record is thus closely connected with the history of the estate and ownership relations of that time.

Water and Leisure

Directly on the beach in Holčíkovce, Palma Bistro rents out paddleboards, or SUPs. Beginners and experienced riders can use them to explore Domaša from the water. The bistro is located directly on the shore of the Domaša reservoir in the municipality of Holčíkovce. Visitors spending time by the water therefore have both a specific offer on the beach and a location directly on the shore in the village.
