Neusiedler See-Seewinkel National Park

The national park spans 300 square kilometers across flat terrain, featuring the Neusiedler See lake, reed belts, salt ponds, and grassland areas.

Established in 1993, the park represents a cross-border protected area between Austria and Hungary, preserving natural habitats and migration routes.

The National Park Centre in Illmitz presents exhibitions about local traditions, agricultural practices, and the relationship between residents and nature.

Visitors access numerous observation platforms and marked trails throughout the park, with guided tours departing from the information center in Illmitz.

The park provides shelter to multiple endangered farm animal breeds, including water buffalos, grey cattle, and baroque donkeys in designated protection zones.
