Tihanyi-szoros, Lake channel at Lake Balaton, Hungary

The Tihanyi-szoros forms a natural water passage within Lake Balaton, connecting different sections of Central Europe's largest freshwater lake.

The channel's formation spans thousands of years of geological processes, shaping the water flow patterns between the northern and southern parts of Lake Balaton.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing methods in the channel waters, passing their techniques from generation to generation within the Lake Balaton region.

Visitors can observe the channel from multiple vantage points along the Tihany Peninsula's walking trails throughout the spring and summer months.

The channel's location near the Tihany Peninsula creates specific water currents that affect the distribution of fish populations in Lake Balaton.
