Photo essay – frozen Sninske Rybniky
You have maybe noticed I don’t write much about my home town and surroundings even though it has a beautiful landscape. Beside one photo of super dark clouds in Snina I published long ago, you could only see photos from the place I was born on my facebook fanpage usually.
But as this winter I have spent most of the time here enjoying walks on cold sunny days, here are some photos from Sninske Rybniky – summer swimming pools in my home town Snina.
There is a lovely walk to get to Sninske Rybniky from the city centre which will take you around 1 hour, or you go by car. Never stop exploring the places you take for granted. You can get stunning photographs there!

Comment@ Canyoning in Wales:
It is big, yes, but I have seen bigger pools. The good thing is not many people swim in the deep part of the pool, not even in summer. And it can get hot, even 35 – 38 Celsius degrees in summer but the usual temperature is around 27 – 33 C I guess.

Looks so peaceful. Great photos. That looks like the biggest swimming pool I have ever seen! How warm does it get there during summer?

Comment@ AJ Aerni:
I was born here so staying with family. The only person doing CS here is me but most of the time I am not here. And there are no hostels, just 2 3*** hotels in the town.

Looks a tad nipply to jump in this time of year… Are you couch surfing? Staying in hostels? What are the overnight accommodations like there?

Comment@ The Guy:
Yes, and the pool is not very full in summer so easy to swim in as it’s 3 m deep :) Unfortunately, there are not many things in Snina to write about.

It looks like a massive pool, bet it is great to swim in. I hope we get to see more articles about your home town, it is little known to most of us.
