Lake Neusiedl is situated in the boarder region to Hungary.
The largest steppe lake of Europe is a unique ecosystem with
an up to 5 km reeds belt and an average water depth of about
1 m. If you want to you can walk through lake Neusiedl, although
I would recommend other pastimes: Lake Neusiedl is a famous
spot for wind surfing and sailing. Struggling with a pedalo
and rowing are popular activities, too. And of course, you
can always go swimming.
Lake Neusiedl is a protected wildlife
sanctury with an immense population of birds - up to 300 different
species live at, in or close to the lake. Its water gets clearer
once you get away from the shore and is of drinking quality.
The town of Rust is famous
for its storks. Mörbisch is in the vincinity of
the Hungarian boarder with white-washed houses and an abundance
of flowers. It is the location of famous 'Seefestspiele Mörbisch'
where operettas by Lehar and Johann
Strauss, jr. are performed.
