Lakes and dams Doubrava

The Těrlická přehrada is located near the village of Těrlicko and has an area of 267 hectares. It lies in the Karviná District, in the Moravian-Silesian Region. The water reservoir was built between 1955 and 1964. Its main purpose was to ensure industrial water supplies for nearby mines and ironworks in Třinec.

The reservoir now also fulfils a flood protection function and simultaneously regulates the flow in the Stonávka, which, outside the Karviná District, also drains part of the Frýdek-Místek District. During the construction of the reservoir, the village of Těrlicko was partially flooded, as was a section of the road connecting Ostrava and Český Těšín. Subsequently, a part of this connection was relocated and now runs along the southern edge of the Těrlická přehrada.

The Těrlická přehrada water reservoir is currently a popular recreational destination. The area is also attractive due to its close proximity to the Polish border. Visitors are invited to set off here for a holiday throughout the year. In summer, the reservoir is primarily used by water sports enthusiasts. Aside from swimming, visitors can also fish, cruise the water surface on boats, or water ski. A circuit for motorized racers has been built on the western shore of the reservoir.

Conversely, in the southern part of the reservoir, where the meandering Stonávka flows into the reservoir, visitors will find the Těrlické mokřady nature trail. Interesting information about the river and the surrounding fauna and flora can be learned here. A cycling route also runs around the Těrlická přehrada, which is part of the Těšín Silesia Euroregion circuit and connects other interesting places in this part of the Beskids. Visitors can, of course, also set off to explore the surroundings of the reservoir on foot.

During warm summer days, a decrease in water quality sometimes occurs. A large amount of algae appears in the reservoir. However, the reservoir is regularly inspected by public health authorities, and if the worst happens and swimming here is not safe for visitors, the nearby Žermanická přehrada can be utilized, which usually maintains good water quality throughout the summer.

In winter, the Těrlická přehrada transforms into a paradise for ice skaters. If there is a fresh snow cover, cross-country skiers can also be encountered here. In past years, when there was a proper winter and temperatures consistently stayed deep below freezing, winter races in ice skating, skiing, and other winter pleasures took place on the Těrlická přehrada, widely attended not only by locals but also by visitors from the wider surroundings.

If visitors are fortunate enough to spend their holiday in this area, they are encouraged to set off to discover other interesting places in the Karviná region. Visitors should not be misled. It has long since ceased to be merely a region full of miners, mines, and the mining industry. The region offers endless possibilities of natural points of interest, historical monuments, and other attractive places suitable for individuals, couples, and families with children.
