Lom Skrabské (fürdeni tilos / no swimming)
Swimming is banned: a turquoise lake in the marl quarry at Skrabské near Hanušovce nad Topľou, which is still an active mining area. Local divers who tried it found about 10 m of depth, 2–4 m visibility and reeds, dead trees and bushes on the bottom, but no fish; the operator has fenced the site and put up signs.
