Chorvátske rameno

Chorvátske rameno is a protected natural area in Bratislava that runs as a water channel through the Petržalka district, lined with willow and poplar forests. The channel is crossed by multiple bridges that connect different parts of the neighborhood.

A riverbank embankment built between 1950 and 1955 separated this waterway from the Danube River. This separation fundamentally changed the water conditions in the area.

This site serves as a gathering place where locals walk, cycle, and watch wildlife in their daily routines. The paths along the water connect neighborhoods and invite people to explore the natural surroundings.

This location is easily accessible on foot or by bicycle, with paths designed for both types of travel. The bridges provide convenient crossing points if you want to explore both sides of the channel.

The area is home to about 10 amphibian species and rare aquatic plants such as white water lilies and flowering rush. This specialized wildlife has adapted to the isolated water system.
