Veľká Domaša
Lake, Dam
The green pearl of eastern Slovakia – the water reservoir Veľká Domaša, built on the river Ondava, is situated in the mountains Ondavská vrchovina. Warm climate of the lake favours water sports and fishing.
Apart from wonderful landscape with peaceful nooks, the lake attracts tourists because of its clear water with admirable self-cleaning capacity where 23 fish species live. Bathing and water sports can be pursued in five recreation villages – Valkov-Tíšava, Dobrá, Poľany, Holčíkovce and Nová Keľča situated on its shores.
Every centre offers accommodation in a hotel, boarding house or camping facilities. Tidy beaches, rentals of sport ecquippment, playgrounds, restaurants and kiosks with quick food offer complete services. The new artificial beach next to the stone weir in Nová Keľča introduced recently is one of the most visited spots.
The water temperature in Veľká Domaša is 23 °C – ideal for swimming while fans of windsurfing also find good conditions here.
A busy night life in summer months in various discoteques or dance halls is refreshed by popular events such as the election of Miss Domaša.

Castle Brekov
Fans of history will perhaps like to ascend to the ruins of the Brekov Castle rising above the town Humenné on top of the andesite rock with a nice view of the environs, including the towns of Humenné and Strážske.
Manor House Humenné
The town Humenné is situated on the middle reach of the Laborec river in the east of Slovakia and it has an originally Renaissance manor house. In the 19th century the manor was reconstructed in the Baroque style, which imitates the French architecture.
Castle Jasenov
South of Humenné in wonderful woods of the Humenské vrchy Mts. are the ruins of the castle called Jasenov from the 13th century.
Kapušany Castle
Kapušiansky hrad sa vypína vysoko na kopci, takže jeho dominantu je jasne vidno už pri výjazde z Prešova smerom na Vranov nad Topľou. Aj dnes je to ešte krásna, pomerne zachovalá zrúcanina.
