Zbiornik Przykona, Water reservoir in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland.
Zbiornik Przykona is a water reservoir in Greater Poland Voivodeship covering about 140 hectares with a maximum depth of 6 meters. A small island of 3 hectares sits in the water, while sandy beaches along the southern and eastern shores are served by piers and parking areas.
The water body emerged from restoration of former brown coal mining pits at the Adamów Mine and was completed in 2004. This transformation turned an industrial site into a water destination for the region.
The water draws anglers who fish for bream, carp, pike, and zander in a tradition rooted in local life. This fishing practice shapes how people use the shores and brings visitors throughout the seasons.
Access is provided through piers and parking areas, with one pier including a stage platform. Visitors should bring layers of clothing since wind blows across the open water, especially during cooler months.
The site is surrounded by forests covering about 2,881 hectares that create diverse habitats for local wildlife. This wooded setting makes the place more than just a lake and gives visitors quieter zones away from the water.
