In the village of Banský Studenec there are two lakes lying next to each other - the so-called Kolpašské. These are artificial tanks - tajchy - which were built for the needs of mining. They are currently used for fishing (especially the smaller ones), but also for summer recreation (especially the larger ones). Although the lakes are also called Studenské (after the village of Banský Studenec), they belong to the warmest secrets of Banská Štiavnica. The water in them is controlled, of sufficient quality for bathing. There are changing cabins on the shores of Lake Kolpaš. However, facilities providing services to holidaymakers are not here. The location will be appreciated especially by visitors looking for quiet, little visited natural swimming pools.

A unique, although not very long canyon-like valley called the Carpenter's Gorge lies in the cadastre of the village of Hontianske Tesáre, in the southern part of the Krupina district. The valley was formed by cutting a local watercourse over rocks of volcanic origin. Sedimentation - sedimentation and stratification of rocks - is clearly visible on the local rock walls.

V Štiavnici je všetko hore, alebo dolu kopcom. Dobre padne načerpať energiu v botanickej záhrade, kde nájdete sekvoje aj japonský céder. Sláva Štiavnice nespočívala iba na bohatstve jej podzemia, ale aj na sláve Baníckej akadémie. Zriadila ju v roku 1762 Mária Terézia ako prvú univerzitu svojho druhu na svete a zhromaždila v nej špičkovú vedu a techniku tej doby. Botanická záhrada obklopuje budovy Akadémie.

Tajchy are lakes situated in central Slovakia. They were constructed for the needs of the local mines and today they serve for recreation bathing in the wonderful natural setting next to Banská Štiavnica, the town inscribed in the UNESCO List of Natural and Cultural Heritage.
