Natural climate fluctuation, as well as expected climate change, brings additional water regimes in the flow of a number of serious issues and uncertainties. The upper parts of the river basins are suitable for studying the effect of potential climate change or increased air temperature on drainage conditions in the basin. The Váh River is the biggest left-side Danube River tributary and the second biggest river in Slovakia. Gauging station Váh – Liptovský Mikuláš is the final profile above the water reservoir Liptovská Mara, one of the largest reservoirs in Slovakia. The contribution deals with the trend analysis of the extreme flows regime and the waves volume belongs to the annual maximum flow at gauging station Váh – Liptovský Mikuláš in a selected time period (1931–2015). Consequently, the trend analyses of precipitation depth and air temperature have been made at three selected meteorological stations located in the upper part of the Váh River basin. We have used the Mann-Kendall nonparametric test, which is one of the most widely used nonparametric tests to detect significant trends in a time series.
