Lucenec district

it is the natural geographic centre of the south part of the Banská Bystrica county. It is bordered by the districts of Veľký Krtíš, Rimavská Sobota, Poltár, Detva and by the Hungarian Republic from south. It is geologically and morphologically very various. The district is rich on natural beauties. The central part of the district is flat, especially along the Ipel river, where the soil is most fertile. In spite of its southern location, the district is quite hilly. Its northern part belongs to the Slovenské Rudohorie, another part belongs to the Slovenské Stredohory. The Cerová Vrchovina part of the Mátransko-Slánska area reaches into the south-east part of the district. This flows into the Lučensko-košická plain, with its exstensive sub-unit, the Lučenská and the Ipeľská basin.
