Boronka-melléki Tájvédelmi Körzet

Boronka-melléki Tájvédelmi Körzet, Landscape park in Somogy County, Hungary.

The Boronka-melléki Protected Landscape is a conservation area in Somogy featuring a network of fishponds surrounded by forests, wetlands, and sandy grasslands. The area connects different natural habitats that support a range of plant and animal life.

After World War I, the Hunyadi family created an economic narrow-gauge railway, laid out the fishpond system and introduced planned forestry in the Boronka area. In 1944 German forces laid a triple mine barrier across the land, which organized mine-clearing units neutralized only by 1956. The protected landscape area was later established over 7,546 hectares, of which 965 are strictly protected.

The name Boronka comes from the stream that runs through the area, and the fishpond chain created by damming it is the park's defining feature. The former clearings in the forest, such as Cserfekvés, Virágospuszta and Kopárpuszta, are gradually being reclaimed by trees. The strictly protected core covers 965 of the 7,546 hectares.

The park is accessible through marked hiking trails that lead through different sections of the area. Visitors should bring waterproof clothing since many paths cross through wet and damp zones.

The males of the marsh frog turn blue during the breeding season, and the moor frog, active at night, also lives here. Twelve amphibian species have been recorded in the wet habitats, alongside the European pond turtle and the red-backed variant of the sand lizard.
