Geist Promenade and Families' Island

The Varrodai Lake is located in the heart of Kondoros, making it a popular spot for evening strolls. Joggers, cyclists, and dog walkers often enjoy circling it. On one side, it is bordered by the Petőfi István Primary School and Dormitory, making it a convenient and pleasant venue for school children's day and parent-organised children's events. On the other side, it is bordered by the Betyár Adventure Playground along with the outdoor sports park, making it a favourite spot for all age groups in the town. On summer evenings, fishing along its banks is a common sight. Additionally, it is situated near several popular attractions, such as the Slovak-Hungarian Landscape and Creative House, the Kondorosi Inn, and the Town Hall. A particularly significant part of the lake is the promenade and Families' Island, which is a very popular venue for outdoor weddings and also hosts film screenings. In winter, when the lake's ice is thick enough, it becomes a beloved spot for ice skaters. The lake features flora similar to that of the Great Plain's irrigation canals and has been planted with water lilies. It is home to numerous fish species and serves as a natural nesting site for wild ducks. Grey herons and storks have also been spotted along its shores.
