Old Lake (Öreg-tó), Tata
The lake is one of the sites covered by the international Ramsar Convention for the protection of wetlands of world importance. There is no other city in Europe where the timid wild geese stop overnight in such numbers.
During the autumn and spring migration periods, the area resounds with the gaggle of 10,000-15,000 wild geese. Every year the people of Tata put on a colourful programme to accompany this spectacular natural phenomenon.
The area around the lake is accessible by wheelchair.
