Zbiornik Radzyny, Artificial reservoir in Kaźmierz municipality, Poland.
Zbiornik Radzyny is an artificial reservoir system in Kaźmierz municipality consisting of two connected water bodies. The system occupies a natural valley carved by the Sama River and is separated into distinct basins by dam structures.
The reservoir system was built between 1998 and 2000 by damming the Sama River valley to create controlled water storage. This project transformed the river valley into managed water basins for the region.
The reservoir and nearby Radzynski Forest function as a gathering spot where people from surrounding villages spend their free time. Locals use this area regularly for outdoor activities and leisure throughout the year.
The site is accessible by paths that run around the water bodies and offer different viewpoints throughout the area. It is best visited during daylight hours, and visitors should bring layers as the weather near water can change quickly.
The water is populated by fish including roach, perch, and pike, making it a spot where anglers can try their luck. These populations thrive in the deeper and shallower sections, creating ecological zones within the basins.
