Tovačovská jezera
A group of four lakes near Tovačov. One of them is open for swimming with clean water and narrow sandy beaches. It's free, but can get crowded.

The Tovačovská jezera are a set of four lakes covering about 330 hectares, located between Olomouc, Přerov, and Prostějov. They are a popular spot for a summer swim.

Why go

If you're looking for a place to cool off, this is it. The water is often described as beautifully clean. The best part? Entry is completely free.

Why avoid

Because swimming is only allowed in one of the four lakes (the one closest to the town of Tovačov), it can get very crowded, especially on a hot day. The sandy beaches are also quite narrow, so finding a spot can be a challenge.

  • Be prepared for crowds.

Cost

Free entry.

Parking

There is a small parking lot about 200 meters away, located on the edge of the town of Tovačov.
