    From Dunaszekcső, we cross the Danube by ferry, leaving Transdanubia behind and entering the wide plains of the Lower Pannonian region. On the opposite shore at Dunafalva, the trail resumes across open farmland, where the horizon stretches uninterrupted beneath the vast sky. This quieter side of the river preserves the sense of remoteness that has long characterised the Danube frontier. Roman watchtowers once guarded these banks, controlling river traffic and securing the imperial boundary. Continuing through the fields, we reach Újmohács. From here, a second ferry carries us across the Danube to Mohács itself.
