Amazing wildlife, exciting experiences – the Hortobágy plain awaits you

The wild horses of the wildlife park, the horse show of Mátai Stud’s horse-herders, an unforgettable horse-drawn carriage ride with herds of grey cattle and the virtuoso stunts of the horse-herders await, and don’t miss Hortobágy Equestrian Days in summer, which have been around for half a century.

The Hortobágy plain is a special place, and its birdlife is quite fantastic. Visit Lake Tisza Bird Reserve for an adventurous water tour and a glimpse into the life of the protected heron and cormorant colonies. Take the water nature trail through the reeds, where you can walk along a boardwalk and admire the birdlife of Lake Tisza from a bird-watching hut and lookout tower.

The Hortobágy plain is an ideal resting place for cranes. In October, you’ll be amazed to see thousands of huge, majestic birds flying in orderly rows across the skies above the Puszta. It’s an experience like no other, and one that you will all remember forever.
