Trnava
is situated in the Danube lowlands on the Trnavská tabula
(Trnava table), bordered by the Little Carpathian Mountains on
the northwest. The town is 50 km northeast of Bratislava. Near
Trnava flows the longest Slovak river (Váh) with its tributaries
– Dudváh, Parná, Trnávka. The landscape
image of a wavily lowland and downs is affected by the intensive
agriculture production based on exploitation of a high-quality
soil. The biotic environment is reshaped by human activity; the
original oak and oak-hornbeam forests were removed. The only nature
reserve of the Trnava Ponds (at the south fringe of the city)
is a significant ornithological locality.
Climate: warm and moderately dry lowlands climate with average
temperatures of –4oC to –1oC in January and of 19.5
oC to 20.5oC in July; the annual rainfall is varying between 530
and 650 mm.
