Horný hodrušský tajch (Bánsky tajch)
A mining reservoir above Hodruša-Hámre with fairly clean water (about 2 m visibility) and excellent access – you can park almost at the water. A hotel stands on the west shore and a ski-lift about 150 m to the south. Like all the tajchy around, it is a training dive rather than a sightseeing one.
