SK, Bratislava - Spring Wake in Rusovce
In case you love to watch nature in spring take a look at our gallery showing you Rusovce. There is 766-meter long nature trail showing the beauties of the Danube islands, Rusovsky canal, and the life of the locals. Going down paths you can see first spring’s flowers, abandoned lake, or the first English-style park with huge platan trees. Of course, notice Rusovsky chateau which has been in decay.
