South Moravia

Aromatic grass carp, Miller’s trout or wild catfish. Those are the delicacies that can be appreciated by many food connoisseurs. One does not need to travel as far as Southern Bohemia to taste some fresh water fish specialities. Even restaurants in the south of Moravia are able to prepare fish dishes that not only look good but are also very tasty and they do so using entirely fresh fish. It is because the area of Southern Moravia, being the basin of both the rivers Morava and Dyje, is abundant with many lakes.

The Lednice lakes are the well-known work of Moravian lake managers. They include the lakes Nesyt, Hlohovecký, Prostřední, Mlýnský and Zámecký and make up an area of 544 hectares of water surface that is used not only for fish breeding purposes but since 1952 it has also been a National natural preserve.
