Small Lake Balaton
Small Lake Balaton is a unique and rich area of natural beauty, which was designated a protected area in 1951 and a National Park in 1997. The swampy, wetland area is home to more than a million birds, and is also the habitat of the large cormorant, the cormorant of the domestic breeding farm.
Today's Kis-Balaton was, until the early 19th century, the westernmost part of Lake Balaton, where the Zala river deposited its barrels before it carried water into the lake. However, the ever-increasing human intervention in the 20th century has led to a series of major accidents. In the 20th century, the area was almost completely cleared, endangering the waters of Lake Balaton;This has radically reduced the wildlife of the Balaton, and has also reduced the quality of the water.
Since the 1970s, this has been repeatedly and systematically planned, with the creation of large ponds and a growing canal system. The efforts to rehabilitate the swamp have been successful, and the many species of bird have found a home here. A significant part of the area of Lake Balaton has been particularly visited, some of which is not accessible to tourists or only in limited areas. This is why it is worth exploring the area, known from the regimes of the Black Forest, from the starting point of the Kis-Balaton Lakes, as part of the guided programmes of the national park.
