Lake Tisza: the most varied canoe tour paradise in Hungary

Those who believe that Lake Tisza is similar in structure to most reservoirs have a false image of it. Lake Tisza is undoubtedly the most diverse canoe tour paradise in Hungary with the alternation of its zigzagging channels, reedy areas, water passages, unfrequented backwaters, streams and rivers, wide blue water areas and flood basin forests.

The surface of the lake is patterned with a wealth of reedy and rushy areas and plant communities full of colourful wetland flowers. Showing the traces of the time before the river control, the varied landscape is scattered with many islands, providing more than a hundred bird species with favourable living conditions.

Due to the constantly changing size of the area covered with plants, Lake Tisza shows us a new face not only yearly but also month by month.

More about Lake-Tisza»
- Romantic Lake-Tisza
- The history of the water is uncovered in winter when the water level is much lower. In the 1960s, when the territory was artificially filled with water, among others forests were also flooded. The complete logging of these forests was unfinished due to lack of time, therefore the top part of numerous fossilized stumps can be seen above the water.
- It’s a romantic area even if the water level is high when fewer stumps are uncovered. In addition the constant activities of the natural forces such as storms and waves make these stumps less visible.
- Nature Reserve
- Significant part of Lake Tisza, which belongs to the Hortobágy National Park, and Ramsar Convention is nature conservation area. Entrance in forbidden temporarily to some parts while to others permanently. The majority of those areas where the lake reserves the most natural values using internal-combustion engines are not allowed to enter, therefore these marvelous places are dominated by canoeists and herons!
- Before setting off for a canoe tour on Lake Tisza, it is highly recommended to become thoroughly prepared! Without local knowledge and talent in using maps, orienteering is not that easy.

Canoe tour guides

The tours are led by trained, experienced guides, who make the tour not only safe but can also provide interesting information about Lake Tisza. We have hungarian guides, who speak english, german and polish.

Nature, nature, nature

During the tours we use canoes for 3 or 4 people. Engines are out of question! 😉 We use canoes instead. We prefer the twittering of birds to the noises of the engine, and fresh air to the stench of the emmitted fume.
