Lake Kolon at Izsák, Protected wetland in Izsák, Hungary
Lake Kolon extends across 2,962 hectares, featuring shallow water bodies, reed beds, and wet meadows with peat soil characteristics throughout the region.
The lake's sediment analysis reveals environmental changes spanning 27,000 years, from an oligotrophic lake phase to current wetland conditions.
The site forms part of Kiskunság National Park and operates under UNESCO Man and Biosphere Reserve guidelines for preserving natural heritage.
Lake Kolon maintains local water systems through groundwater recharge and discharge, while supporting traditional activities like reed harvesting and mowing.
The wetland hosts all eight Hungarian heron species and sustains the rare European mudminnow fish population in its waters.
