Sió, Regulated waterway in Transdanubia, Hungary.
The Sió Canal extends 124 kilometers from Lake Balaton to the Danube River, flowing through Somogy, Fejér, and Tolna counties.
Engineers constructed this canal during the late 19th century as part of extensive hydrological controls to manage water levels in Lake Balaton.
The canal system integrates with regional water tourism networks, connecting multiple Hungarian rivers and offering opportunities for canoeing and kayaking activities.
Water management infrastructure along the canal prevents flooding in nearby settlements while supporting irrigation systems across agricultural regions.
The drainage basin of the Sió encompasses 14,693 square kilometers, managing one-third of Transdanubia's water flow with an average discharge of 39 cubic meters per second.
