Dudinka summer swimming pool
The swimming pool is named after a fairy, to whom Dudince, according to a well-known legend, owes the healing power of the local spring. It underwent a complete reconstruction in 2007 and has since been a popular swimming pool for locals, spa guests and visitors from near and far. The cozy area, intimate atmosphere and cleanliness – these are the most common answers people give when asked why they feel good here.

Mineral pool
One of the pools of the swimming pool is filled with Dudinka mineral healing water daily – hence the name mineral pool. The water temperature in the pool is 33 - 34°C. Dudinka mineral water has a beneficial effect on diseases of the musculoskeletal system, cardiovascular and nervous systems, and therefore this pool is especially popular with people who want to treat their bones, joints, muscles or high blood pressure. This pool is "sedentary", which means that you need to sit quietly in it, do not swim, do not make unnecessary movements and do not swirl the water. It is intended for people from 15 years of age. The maximum recommended time of stay in it is 30 minutes. People suffering from heart diseases must be especially careful. It is recommended to take off jewelry before entering the pool – mineral water can cause them to turn black.
