Baráthok Well

About Baráthok Well

One of the distinctive sights of the Járás area, between Kanjiža and Vojvoda Zimonić, is Baráthok Well, an artesian well more than a century old. Drilled in 1908 and still flowing today, it takes its name from the former Baráth farmstead nearby. Its water rises from a depth of around 265 metres at a temperature of approximately 20 °C. In the past, it was used to water livestock, while local people also came here to bathe and cool off. In 2016, local volunteers restored the well and its surroundings, turning the old watering place into a rustic bathing and rest area that blends into the open landscape. Today, this outdoor bathing spot is a memorable stop for cyclists, hikers and nature lovers exploring the Járás area.
