Fishing
Lake Tisza is a four-season fishing lake, with a variety of water types, providing a comfortable habitat for most native Hungarian fish. The lake is home to over fifty species of fish, ranging from giant catfish to swift carp, which means that Lake Tisza offers fishing opportunities well above the national average. There are a variety of places and methods available for licensed anglers, and along the shore, there are also boats and fishing points specially designed for disabled people.
Water promenade and nature trail
The 1500-metre-long boardwalk of Lake Tisza winds alongside thickets, reed beds, floodplain forests and seaweed fields, in the previously inaccessible wilderness areas of the lake, giving you an insight into the unique flora and fauna of the region. Exploration is aided by specially designed birdwatching observatories and an observation tower, so you can see cormorants, grey herons and black storks in their natural habitat.
On two wheels
One of the country’s centres of flatland cycling, with nearly 500 unified bicycle parks and a well-developed service network ensures that a trip around Lake Tisza can become an unforgettable experience. The cycle path network takes hikers through eye-catching landscapes with views of lush floodplain forests, islands and, of course, the rippling water. The lake can be crossed by ferry in four places, and there is also the possibility of combined boat and bicycle trips using the boats provided at the ports.
Boat trips
If you really want to experience at first hand all that Lake Tisza and its surroundings have to offer, we recommend the GPS-assisted motorboat tours, which run until the end of October. For the more adventurous, there are 12 different trails of varying lengths, from a short 2.7 km hike to a 24 km loop hike lasting several hours. You can also navigate the routes on your own, without a driver, with the help of digital navigation devices.
Gastronomic places to discover
Active recreation usually gives you an appetite, but you don’t have to go far to satisfy it. For a truly special breakfast in Poroszló, visit the Füzes Cheese Workshop.Here you can enjoy quality artisanal dairy products: locally made cream cheese, orda cheese pancakes, yoghurt and cream cheese are all on the menu. The Fűzfa (‘Willow’) Hotel and Recreation Park in Poroszló is a good choice for lunch, as the hotel’s restaurant boasts a number of local specialities: a variety of local fish soups, poultry and fish, as well as delicacies made from deer. A special feature of the Aranyosidombi Udvarház (‘Aranyosidomb Farmhouse’) restaurant is that their suppliers are largely their own family farm, so thanks to their own production, the dishes are always fresh and made from excellent ingredients. For dessert, you don’t have to leave Poroszló either, head to the Poroszló Strudel House, where freshly made strudel is filled with sour cherry, poppy seeds or cottage cheese, but in autumn, you can also expect seasonal specialities: you can try the pumpkin or even the cabbage strudel.
