About this spot
Between Kalinkovo, Hamuliakovo and Gabčíkovo the Danube widens into the Hrušov reservoir. Spotkitesurf lists two Hamuliakovo launches (Protiprúd and Hamuli/Donau) among the most-viewed Slovak spots, and windsurf.sk keeps its own threads for them.
This is open, large water with river traffic and current nearby — strictly for self-sufficient riders.

Needs local verification: Compiled in October 2026 from windsurf.sk's community spot register, Spotkitesurf's Slovak spot list, Slovakia.travel's kiting page and Slovak school pages (Kite Ride). Kite Ride itself writes that Slovak lakes are poor for learning and runs its courses in Hungary — so no Slovak spot carries a beginner label. Pins are approximate, wind windows are my reading of each shoreline, and bathing-zone, fishing and fee rules need checking on site. Water temperature is a seasonal lake estimate; the marine model has no inland data.
Local hazards
- Shipping and current near the navigation channel
- Long drift distance on open water
- Stony dyke banks
