Thermal water pool - Zelena Zaba

Deep under the ground there are hidden treasures in the form of bizarre caves and springs of mineral and thermal waters,which is the result of the volcanic activities in the Carpathian Mountains. Geysers of crystal clear water gave rise to the building of centres of recreation and health.
In the Vág river area you can find several Spas in Pöstyén, Nemõc and of course in Trencsénteplicz too.
The "Zelena zaba" - Green frog pool was built in 1937. Its 33 m long swimming pool is cut in the rock in the sunny part of the wood. Water in the pools is 29-33°C warm. In the swimming pool area there is also a children´s pool and a large terrace with restaurants.

By coincidence we were talking just the other day about The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann. I must admit I only read the first one hundred pages and then got bogged down. (Though I like a lot of his other books, and his brother's books even more.)
