Őrség National Park, National park in southwestern Hungary

The park encompasses 44,000 hectares of forests, meadows, and streams across a rolling landscape near the Austrian and Slovenian borders.

In 2002, the area received national park status to protect natural habitats and preserve the settlements of Magyar border guards from the 10th century.

The Pityerszer Open Air Museum displays three traditional farmhouses with original furnishings that demonstrate regional architecture and rural life methods.

Visitors can explore 15 marked hiking trails, observe 200 natural springs, and participate in guided tours from the main visitor center in Őriszentpéter.

The Rába River section within the park maintains its natural meandering course, making it one of the most unaltered waterways in Hungary.
