Beschrijving
Maltańskie Lake was created in the 1950s and functions as a rowing track. Around the reservoir there are recreation areas - thermal baths, an artificial ski slope, bicycle paths, etc. The most interesting time at the lake is in the autumn and winter, when thousands gulls gather for the night: Zilvermeeuw, Pontische Meeuw, Kokmeeuw (2000-3000 ind.), Stormmeeuw and single Zwartkopmeeuw, Geelpootmeeuw, Kleine Mantelmeeuw, Grote Mantelmeeuw. Three rare seagulls were also found on the lake: Grote Burgemeester, Kleine Burgemeester and Reuzenzwartkopmeeuw. This is a very popular place for ring readers.
Zeearend and Slechtvalk sometimes come to the lake to hunt gulls. Single sea ducks and divers also appear regularly during this period: Grote Zee-eend, Zwarte Zee-eend, Topper and Parelduiker. Due to the few places with a belt of reeds, there are not many breeding species here. The more interesting birds that can be observed quite regularly here are Groene Specht, IJsvogel and Grote Gele Kwikstaart.

Toegang
Maltańskie Lake is located in the city center, so there is no problem getting there by public transport or by bike. A bicycle path and a walking route run around the lake. On the northern shore the paths are not separated, so watch out for cyclists and rollerbladers.
