Baláta-tó, Protected lake in Somogy County, Hungary.
Baláta-tó spans 220 hectares of natural reserve, featuring floating peat islands, sedge wetlands, mossy willow bogs, and hornbeam-oak woods in Transdanubia.
The establishment of Baláta-tó as a protected area in 1942 marked it as the first nature conservation site in Somogy County.
The Dr. Marián Miklós Promenade, named after a notable researcher, provides educational opportunities through its 600-meter walkway above the moor.
Visitors can access the lake via regular train services from Kaszói Állami Erdei Vasút to the Baláta stop for guided tours.
The lake harbors the carnivorous Aldrovanda vesiculosa plant species, which disappeared in 1948 but was rediscovered among the bogs in 1957.
