A special feature of Dudince is the early written reference to its mineral waters: they were first officially mentioned in 1777 and described at the time as warm healing springs called Gyogy. Around this water, different aspects of Dudince exist side by side.

Mineral water and baths

At the Rubín spa house, there is a 34 °C warm sitting pool with mineral water; the mineral pool is also open to the public on Sundays. Dudinka summer swimming pool is a summer family facility with four pools and water attractions. These include a water slide, a family slide, a water channel with jets and a children's area. The summer swimming pool also includes a 33 to 34 °C warm sitting pool with Dudince healing water. The bathing facilities therefore differ in their respective layout, temperature and accessibility.

Nature and routes

The Dudince Tourist Information Centre rents out electric bicycles, bicycles and scooters. The Lišovská trasa leads from Dudince along the forest and is part of the Zlatá cesta landscape in historic Hont, which includes natural and cultural heritage sites. The Travertínová terasa is a distinctive natural feature: it covers 1,433 m² on the banks of the Štiavnica and has several sites of active travertine formation under relatively natural conditions. Thus, alongside the route, there are also geological formations with clearly named local features.

History and culture

The Rímske kúpele, also known as Močidlá, are an extensive spring mound with a flat surface into which 32 square and rectangular pits have been carved. The “Leaning Tower” remains a tourist attraction because of its unusual inclination and is tilted 51 centimetres out of plumb. The 14th edition of Dudinské otvorené pivnice was scheduled to take place at Merovské vinice on 9 August 2025.

Getting around

Kúpele Dudince can take guests directly from the railway station or a bus stop to the spa house if they register for the transfer at the reception of the respective spa house at least one day in advance. This defines both the starting point and the advance notice required for registration for this transfer. The Tourist Information Centre and the Lišovská trasa complement the described options for routes and transport around Dudince.
