    We set off towards the world-famous Hévíz lake with a slight detour from Kehidakustány. We travel through the quiet landscapes of Zala to the world-renowned peat-bedded medicinal lake, first described in the 14th century. Its water is capable, without claiming completeness, of treating rheumatic musculoskeletal diseases, gout, secondary joint and chronic peripheral nervous system disorders. Besides its healing effect, the lake's special feature is the cyclamen-red Indian red water lily that blooms late at night, introduced at the end of the 19th century. In addition to the red water lily, we can also find small-flowered white water lilies, which are the only native form of Hévíz.

    Author’s recommendation

    If we have time, we can go up to the Mother Teresa lookout.

    • We set off to the right from the bath and cross the Zala river, then turn left onto the bike path at the crossroad.
    • After the turn, we take the next street on the right and pass by the cemetery.
    • At the next intersection, we turn right, then pass through Nemesbük, and from there we cycle all the way to Hévíz.
    • Arriving at Hévíz, we pass along Büki street beside the cemetery, then take the 3rd exit of the roundabout towards Széchenyi street.
    • From this street, we turn right onto Petőfi Sándor street, then left, and finally right onto Dr. Schulhoff Vilmos promenade, where we find the medicinal lake.
