Overview

About Thermal Corvinus Velky Meder

Thermal Corvinus, Slovakia is a year-round thermal aquapark in Velky Meder, Dunajska Streda District, Trnava Region, southwestern Slovakia, 65 kilometres east of Bratislava near the Hungarian border. The complex occupies 14.7 hectares on the edge of the town, adjoining a 100-hectare forest park with maintained walking paths. It is one of the most visited recreational resorts in Slovakia and is open 365 days a year.

Two thermal springs supply the pools with geothermal water at temperatures of 25 to 38 degrees Celsius. The chemical composition of the water is beneficial for joint conditions, back pain, muscle tiredness, and movement disorders, and has a general regenerative effect. Up to 13 pools are available at peak season, of which 7 are year-round; 6 outdoor pools are added in summer. The pools have water massage jets, play elements, and relaxation areas. Waterslides including a year-round indoor slide are on site.

Tarzania is an outdoor challengeland and adventure playground for both children and adults, a distinctive feature of the resort. Additional facilities include massage, sauna, solarium, whirlpool bubble baths, mini-golf, beach volleyball, sports fields, and a large beach area. The complex is surrounded by forest and many guests combine a pool day with walks through the adjacent 100-hectare woodland.

Safety & Etiquette

Thermal Corvinus Safety Tips

Thermal Corvinus is a managed facility with lifeguards on duty at the pools. The thermal water ranges from 25 to 38 degrees; the warmer pools require the same care as any thermal facility. Limit continuous soaking in the 38-degree pools to 20 to 30 minutes and rest in a cooler pool or shaded area between sessions. People with cardiovascular conditions, high blood pressure, or pregnancy should seek medical advice before extended bathing. Children must be supervised at all times in the pools and on the waterslides.

The Tarzania challengeland has equipment designed for different age groups and sizes; follow posted age, height, and weight guidelines at each element. Adult supervision is required for younger children throughout the obstacle course. Grip sandals are recommended in pool areas and on tiled walkways throughout the complex. Not all outdoor pools and seasonal attractions operate in winter; check corvinustermal.sk for current opening status before visiting outside the summer season.

Buy tickets online at corvinustermal.sk to skip entrance queues on busy summer weekends. The park is open 365 days a year but peak summer Saturdays can reach capacity; arriving early or mid-week is advisable. The 100-hectare forest park adjacent to the thermal complex offers shaded walking paths freely accessible and safe throughout the day; the combination of a pool session with a forest walk is a common local itinerary. Dunajska Streda, 15 kilometres north, has additional services and the nearby Thermalpark Dunajska Streda if needed.
