Balatonfüred, Resort town on the northern shore of Lake Balaton, Hungary.
Balatonfüred is a settlement on Lake Balaton's northern shore with marinas, mineral springs, and buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries along its waterfront paths. The architecture and facilities reflect its long use as a health destination.
The town began in 1722 when doctors started using the local carbonated springs for medical treatment. This early start made it a center for spa medicine in the region.
The town grew around its mineral springs, which have drawn people seeking healing for generations and shape daily life here. The waterfront promenades and parks show how both visitors and locals use the springs and shoreline together.
The location is easy to get around and offers several ways to explore the springs and shoreline, though some areas have hills. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and allow time to explore different sections.
In winter months, the lake near here can freeze solid enough for ice skating and ice boating on its surface. This rare experience surprises many visitors.
