Termálne kúpalisko Chalmová

Termálne kúpalisko Chalmová lies at Chalmová in the municipality of Bystričany, in the Upper Nitra (horná Nitra) mining region of central Slovakia. It is run by TERMAL CHALMOVÁ - BYSTRIČANY, s.r.o., a company of the municipality of Bystričany, with the registered address at the municipal office, M. Nešporu 1, 972 45 Bystričany.

The bath is not summer-only. Two covered regeneration pools stand indoors and the operator states they run all year, built directly over the thermal springs so that the hot thermal water rises straight into them; the water temperature is given as 32–34 °C in the cooler pool and 36–38 °C in the hot pool. The outdoor area, used in the summer season, holds two large pools: a swimming pool 25 metres long with water at 27–28 °C, and a recreation pool measuring 25 by 10 metres with water attractions such as a water mushroom and water jets at 28–29 °C, alongside a children's wading area of 13 by 2 metres where children may enter only with an adult.

The operator describes the spring as a natural, medium-mineralised mineral water of 1,100 mg/l, of sulphate-bicarbonate, calcium-magnesium type, with raised fluorine content, weakly alkaline, hypotonic, and with a temperature of 24–40 °C. The operator states that the water has been healing for more than a hundred years, but publishes no opening year and no borehole depth.

Indoor wellness rooms were completely rebuilt at the end of 2024, when an enlarged and renewed Finnish sauna and an entirely new infrared sauna were added; the relaxation zone has a cooling pool and an ice-water shower, loungers and cabins. Massage and alternative therapies are available by appointment from partner practitioners. A new gym and fitness centre operates on site, and the operator states the sauna is available all year, entered on the hour, with a minimum of three and a maximum of six people per hour, or up to fifteen for an organised group.

The pools open Monday 9:00–18:00 and Tuesday to Sunday 9:00–19:00; the fitness room opens at 10:00 on Wednesday and Thursday, and the sauna closes an hour earlier each day, at 17:00 on Monday and 18:00 on the other days. The operator gives the same hours for the summer and the winter season.
