cím: HEVIZIBIVALY Duathlon 2021: a unique sport event was held for the first time in Hévíz
lead: We organised the HEVIZIBIVALY Duathlon for the first time this year. Here's what happened on 27 November!
tartalom:+ 1 The competition was organised by the Hévíz Tourism Non-profit Ltd., the Balaton Uplands National Park, the Saint Andrew Rheumatological Hospital, the Vadlán Runners and the Vidra Water cruise team. More than 30 additional volunteers took part in the event. A special competition The goal of the organizers was to create a new sport competition that is also unique nationwide. They not only paired two completely different sports (rowing and running) as a duathlon but they have also chosen a very special venue. The Hévíz stream leads away the warm running water of Lake Hévíz, so despite the winter weather, you can row on a pleasantly warm, steaming stream. The date of the competition was also predetermined by the conditions of the location, as rowing on the Hévíz stream is only possible from November to March. As the stream belongs to the local national park, canoeing is strictly forbidden outside the given period since it would disturb the flora and fauna especially in the breeding season in summer. So it is no coincidence that the late autumn date has been chosen. The aim of the organizer, the Hévíz Tourism Non-profit Ltd. was also to draw attention to the importance of exercise, active recreation in nature and a healthy lifestyle. They wanted to prove that Hévíz is not only a paradise for lovers of healing and wellness, but it can also offer many values and opportunities for athletes at any time of the year. The competition itself 83 starting teams, a total of 146 competitors arrived at the water-gate of the Hévíz stream to get into the water by canoe, kayak or SUP, and to make their way to Fenékpuszta which is about 10 kilometres away. Participants were able to bring their own watercrafts but those who didn’t have their own were also able to rent a canoe on the spot. After completing the 10-kilometre water distance, the participants were able to leave the boats at the transfer point and change their water vehicle for running shoes. After this their task was to run back on the same route on the embankment next to the Hévíz stream to finally reach the finish line at the beach of Lake Hévíz. The race has started on November 27 at 9 am, when the first canoe on the Hévíz stream in the direction of Fenékpuszta set off. The participants started the competition periodically, a new canoe set sail in almost every second minute. The last runner arrived back at the Hévíz Lake Bath beach area at 3 pm. All participants received the HEVIZIBIVALY Duathlon medal. THE PARTICIPANTS OF THE FIRST DUATLON Pre-registration for the competition was open until November 19th. In the morning of November 27, 83 competitors finally set out to complete the approximately 21-kilometer distance, including rowing and then running. All together 48 two or three-member teams and 35 individual participants (28 men, 7 women) set off. We welcomed ultra-runners, kayakers and amateur athletes among the competitors. No one gave up the race, all starters covered the distance without accident, so in the end all 146 competitors received the HEVIZIBIVALY medals. THE FINALISTS TEAMS: BL Team (#49) with a time of 2:10:04. Tamás Kolb and Judit Maléth (#54) with a time result of 2:15:28. Tamás Horváth and Gábor Major (#8), with a time result of 2:15:42. IN THE INDIVIDUAL WOMEN'S CATEGORY Éva Berekalli (#79) with a time result of 2:16:35. Helga Szidónia Kőhalmi (#71) with a time result of 2:18:23. Anita Galliné Szabó (#68) with a time result of 2:26:27. IN THE INDIVIDUAL MEN 'S CATEGORY Álmos Kassai (#84) with a time result of 1:42:16. József Friedrich (#89) with a time result of 1:52:58. Zoltán Csécsei (#92) with a time result of 1:55:42. A special award was given to the fastest SUP competitor Kornél Kazai. The success of the competition and the sincere enthusiasm of the competitors confirmed the organizers to organise the HEVIZIBIVALY Duathlon competition again and again every year during the winter, if they can. We want more and more people to prove that they do have the buffalo power too! We truly hope that every participant has enjoyed the race! See you next year as well! And lastly… Why the competition is called ‘HEVIZIBIVALY’ 'HEVIZIBIVALY' means 'buffalo from Hévíz' in Hungarian. Barely 50 years ago, water buffaloes were trampled along the bed of the Hévíz stream several times a year. The buffalos were driven here from the area to walk up and down in the creek bed. As the bed of the stream was always full of plants, the buffalos trampling down the plants ensured that the water flowed continuously and evenly in the direction of Lake Balaton. Buffaloes still live in several places in the area today, but they no longer have the task of cleaning the creek bed. This year our competitors have proven that they have the power of a buffalo. But do you have what it takes? Come and join us next year! Some photos from the event: [galeria]

tartalom:+ 1 Hévíz, the city of the world-famous thermal lake, is full of life and cultural events even in summer. The charm of the city lies not only in the water, but also in the variety of special events that spice up the summer season. Music is for everyone A series of music programs will start on May 30 and will last until September.

lead: Lake Hévíz and Lake Balaton are quite popular destinations in Hungary. Daily, more than ten thousand people spend their holidays in this beautiful region. However, we might raise the question: what do we know and what should we know about the two most iconic lakes of Hungary?
tartalom:+ 1 While Lake Balaton is the biggest freshwater lake in Central Europe, Lake Hévíz is the world’s biggest thermal lake that is also suitable for bathing. The source of Lake Balaton is a river called Zala, while Lake Hévíz has its source from a cave underneath the lake. The water of Lake Balaton flows through the Sió channel into the river Danube, however, the water of Lake Hévíz flows into the Gyöngyös stream, then to Small Balaton and ends up in Lake Balaton. The deepest point of Lake Balaton is about 11 metres in contrast to Lake Hévíz, where the source point is 38.5 metres deep. The surface of the water of Lake Balaton is 600 km2 whereas Lake Hévíz has only a 0.0475 km2 water surface. Due to the great water output of Lake Hévíz, the complete water of the lake is replaced in every 72 hours. Regarding Lake Balaton, this phenomenon takes almost two years. The temperature of Lake Balaton can be as high as 28°C on hot summer days; however, during cold winters the upper layers of the water can freeze. The ice can even grow 25 cm thick. On the other hand, the temperature of Lake Hévíz never goes below 23°C, not even in the winter. In the summer, the water of Lake Hévíz is about 35-36°C hot. We would be able to swim around Lake Hévíz in about half an hour if the buildings did not prevent us from doing so. Nonetheless, a week wouldn’t be enough to swim around Lake Balaton. Lake Balaton is full of both summertime and wintertime activities: you can rent a boat or a paddleboat, you can surf, sail and try out many extreme sports, while in the winter you can ice skate or slide if the ice is thick enough. In Lake Hévíz, you may only bath; however, you can do so every day of the year. The water of Lake Balaton is qualified as drinking water, whereas the water of Lake Hévíz is medicinal water also suitable for cures and many people drink it. In Lake Balaton, you can bath all day long, while, in Lake Hévíz, it is advisable to stay only thirty minutes at a time. We can even walk into Lake Balaton from the shores, while into Lake Hévíz we can descend into the water through stairs since the water is 2 metres deep around the shores as well. The typical flora of Lake Balaton is the reed which is mostly located around the shores. Lake Hévíz is famous for the beautiful water lilies that float around the whole Lake. Both lakes are rich in different species of fish. The mud of Lake Balaton is quite popular with kids who love playing with it on the beaches. On the other hand, the mud of Lake Hévíz is favoured by adults, who like to use the mud on their bodies due to its medical benefits. Lake Balaton as a touristic region is the second most popular region in Hungary after Budapest. At the same time, Hévíz, following Budapest, has the greatest number of guest nights in Hungary. Lake Balaton offers spectacular views whether you are watching it in the embrace of monadnocks, admiring it in a storm, or you are taking photos of the birds gathering along the crevasses or of the bellying sails. The crystal clear turquoise colour of Lake Hévíz, the blooming water lilies floating on it, the whirling mist above it, the reflection of the buildings at night, and to be aware that you are floating above 38.5 meters are a mystical feeling. Both Lake Balaton and Lake Hévíz are national treasures, which have evolved over millions of years as they are today. They are not for us, but we enjoy all the good that they can give us. We have to save and protect them so that the future generations would be able to enjoy the unparalleled natural beauty they provide.

lead: 5 simple tips to help you stay fit. Because autumn is about preparing your body and soul for the sometimes grey, sometimes glamorous but usually long winter.
tartalom:+ 1 BEACH SEASON IN AUTUMN AT THE LARGEST THERMAL LAKE IN THE WORLD Bathe in 30°C hot water in the world's largest natural thermal lake in Hévíz. You do not have to give up the beach experience as the off-season in Hévíz is like a holiday received as a present. Whether it is overcast or it is drizzling, the stroking of hot water will dispel the sad autumn mood and, if there is any, the feeling of aching muscle/joints. And if it is raining and blowing, you can still immerse yourself in a pampering spa experience in the indoor spa or wellness area. ACTIVE EXPERIENCES LOCALLY AND AT YOUR FINGERTIPS Discover the wonderful surroundings of Hévíz, where many wonders of the western corner of Lake Balaton await you. Discover the ruins of the castles of Szigliget, Rezi, Tátika, Csobánc, Sümeg, Nagyvázsony, explore the cycling paths and hiking trails, visit the lookout towers, from where you can see an unparalleled panorama of Lake Balaton. To do so, the Tourinform office in Hévíz also provides you with maps, bicycles and e-bikes. Take a boat trip in the bay or visit Keszthely, where you can see the third-largest baroque mansion in Hungary with six unique exhibitions. There is no more ideal time for active relaxation than early autumn, with its gorgeous colours, when the temperature is pleasant, around 20°C. IT'S TIME TO RELAX A LITTLE AND CHARGE YOUR BATTERIES BEFORE THE LONG WINTER In autumn, it is recommended to have a little immune boost, which is based on the regeneration of body and soul. And it's easier to relax, unwind, and relieve stress when you rely on professionals. Does your back or do your shoulders hurt? Would you regain your fitness? Would you draw strength before the long winter? Give yourself a chance for a quality holiday. Pamper yourself with a refreshing massage, do sports every day for half an hour in the fresh air, choose from the offer of autumn vegetables and fruit, and finally relax your muscles in the hot medicinal water. A 5-day holiday in Hévíz can do wonders if you want to recharge your batteries in a calm environment, without crowdedness. Time and space (reception) do not matter on the cosy streets and squares of Hévíz and its surroundings, on the walking paths of parks and forests, and the promenades along the waterfront. Only the quality time you dedicate to yourself counts. AUTUMN IS THE SEASON OF GOOD WINES AND CULINARY ADVENTURES Whether it's wines, a dinner with friends, an autumn barbecue party or a culinary evening, there are many opportunities in Hévíz in the autumn. Visit Hévíz and choose from a wide range of restaurants, since whether you would like to try traditional Hungarian flavours, street food or fine dining dinners, the flavours of autumn: mushrooms, chestnut, pumpkin, grapes, pears, plums, peaches make every meal a real experience. And if you still cannot find the flavours you like, visit the Hévíz Farmers' Market, where you can choose from local cheeses, smoked meats, juices, jams and pickles. THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN BUMPING INTO A COZY CONCERT DURING A ROMANTIC EVENING STROLL Although this year has not been loud from events and festivals, in the autumn we prefer a cosy little concert, a harvest-time cooking, or a romantic movie. The long autumn evenings and the pleasantly warm afternoons would provide an ideal opportunity to visit the exhibition at the Museum in the Town Centre, walk in the Roman ruin garden, enjoy an open-air concert or buy tickets for a theatre performance in Keszthely. Choose at least one cultural program from the area you haven’t seen before that you’ve never seen or visited before and top your vacation off with a pinch of art.

cím: Get your hiking boots and explore the wonders of the Kis-Balaton region!
lead: The region of Hévíz has many adventures to offer, especially for the lovers of nature. Let's see what you may see in the Kis-Balaton region!
tartalom:+ 1 The Kányavár Island The arched wooden bridge built of wooden beams in the eighties has now become a symbol of Kis-Balaton. We can enjoy a wonderful view of the groves from the bridge. We can admire special waterfowl such as the great egret, the gray heron, or the cormorant, which is less popular with anglers. On the 1.5-kilometer-long "Búbosvöcsök" educational trail, 15 boards show the fish, birds and mammals living in the Kis-Balaton region. You can also go fishing on the island and look at the water and the hills of Zala from two lookout towers. If you would rather go inside... The Kis-Balaton Visitor Center is the latest exhibition in the Balaton Uplands National Park. An excellent choice for the whole family all year round, with the interactive exhibition even the little ones won't get bored! On the green roof structure of the building, which resembles game passages, you can walk on an interactive educational trail. From here you can clearly see the winter bird feeders and hear birds chirping. There is a gift shop and restaurant in the building as well, and children can enjoy the fresh air in the playground in the courtyard, while parents can refresh themselves with coffee. The cinema is part of the exhibition, where we can get to know the winter-summer, autumn-spring wildlife of Kis-Balaton through touching quotes from the novels of István Fekete Tüskevár and Téli berek during a half-hour film, all in the interpretive interpretation of Gábor Reviczky. In the interactive part of the exhibition, we can find out what invasive species are and why do they mean danger to the flora and fauna of the region. It turns out what the role of Kis-Balaton is in the protection of the water quality of Lake Balaton, and we can even examine water samples ourselves. If you want to see even more of this magical world, you can take part in a canoe tour organized by the Balaton Uplands National Park from early spring to late autumn. It is only possible to paddle on the Hévíz stream until the mid-March, but on the Gyöngyös stream, which carries the water of the Hévíz stream towards Lake Balaton, the regular tours are available during the year as well. The end point of the rowing tour is Diás Island, where the hut of Matula evokes the atmosphere of the groves. At the István Fekete Memorial next to the small wooden hut, you could also delve into the hidden wonders of Kis-Balaton during a very interesting exhibition. Secret sights off the beaten path Most places in Kis-Balaton like the Diás Island can only be visited with a guide, but there are quite a few romantic and protected areas that can be explored freely without a guide. Next to the river Zala, you can find the 'Madárvárta' at the dam of Lake Hídvégi, which was built by students from Zurich. The building was made of thousands of acacia logs without any nails or screws. Next to the parking lot, about 100 meters away, you can find the 'fish ladder', where you can marvel at the cavalcade of fish in the spring. The fish ladder between the river Zala and Lake Hidvégi slows down the flow of water, so fish can easily swim in the opposite direction. Buffaloes and other animal species In the buffalo reserve in Kápolnapuszta, you can not only see buffalos but you can also spot susliks lurking in the grass! Even in the early 20th century, the ground squirrel was considered harmful and therefore water was into their passages, so they would be forced to move away. Other spectacular animals are the goats and donkeys in the petting zoo. In the colonies carved into the loess wall, the bee-eaters stand out with their brightly colored feathers. But what about buffaloes? The Balaton Uplands National Park started breeding water buffaloes in 1992 in an area purchased for gene conservation. The reserve is home to the largest herd of buffalo in the country, living in great peace with the gray cattles. During the winter, the animals spend most of their time in the barn near the entrance, where we can see the traditional stock-farming in a cozy old photo next to the buffaloes. In better weather, the animals are on pasture, which is most easily reached by horse-drawn carriage ordered in the centre building. The so called black giants are also “buffalo-strong” and don’t necessarily always approach people with friendly intentions. Driving through in the pastures with a horse-drawn carriage is like being on safari. A novelty in the area of the reserve is the lookout tower, which was handed over on January 28, 2022, where we can now observe the animals from up above. The Kis-Balaton House: a cultural travel Next to the foundation walls of the former church of St. Adorjan and the Cyril and Methodius Memorial Column, you could enjoy the photos of the wonders of Zala County in a Millennium Monument designed by Imre Makovecz.

lead: Elimination of urban heat islands in order to improve the quality of life of the population and guests.
tartalom:+ 1 The Be Ready (UrBan Heat Islands - UHI - Resilience, PrepAreDness and mitigation Strategy) project deals with the climate change capabilities of the Danube region. The Municipality of Hévíz City participates as a consortium partner in the project, where a total of 19 partners from 12 countries joined together to jointly develop solutions to mitigate the effects of heat islands in the urban environment. Representatives of the following organizations participated in the workshop: Hévíz City MunicipalityHévíz St. Andrew's Rheumatology Hospital and SpaBalaton Uplands National ParkHévíz Entrepreneurs' AssociationHévíz Room Publishers' AssociationLiget Hévíz Ltd.Hévíz Television Ltd.Bonvital Gastro & Wellness HotelNoppa Ltd.Kisalföldi Enterprise Development FoundationHévíz Palace HotelBOKU University, Vienna What is the project about in brief? The partner cities, including Hévíz, develop action plans to combat urban 'hotspots' using data analysis, urban planning solutions, regulations and infrastructure measures.As the average summer temperature rises, urban heat islands (UHI) are increasingly forming, which pose a health risk to residents and visitors, especially among the oldest and youngest, as well as sick people. The unprecedented heat waves experienced recently show that there is an urgent need to strengthen the preparedness and adaptability of society and to consciously (re)shape our living spaces in defense against the heat. The aim of the project in Hévíz is to assess the city's hottest spots and develop solutions for their effective cooling or elimination. Efforts must be made to ensure that, within the framework of the 2-year program, there are immediate solutions, unique model projects and long-term strategic proposals at the local level as well. The BeReady project consists of 5 phases, of which the III. stage preparation is underway in Hévíz. In Phase I, the research institutes assessed the general characteristics of the heat islands and are working on methods to map them. The II. the partners got to know the methods. The current III. with the involvement of the localities, locally affected partners, professional organizations, experts and the population, they will assess their own heat islands based on the methodology and their risk in order to be able to formulate proposals to prevent the formation of heat islands or eliminate existing ones. This will be followed by IV. phase, in which specific tasks and pilot projects must be implemented to reduce heat islands, the results of which will have to be reported and the results published in phase V. Experts from public institutions, scientific institutions, civil organizations and businesses came together to learn about the risks of urban heat islands and to actively participate in the further activities of the project, the elimination of heat islands on the 6th November 2024 for a local workshop. The crowd of 18 guests got familar with the whole project, and started to learn the about the metodology which will used to measure and collect the local datas to provide the UHI vulnerability of Hévíz.

lead: Winter is just a season.
Some people even go for an extreme swim at Lake Balaton in January, but you don't have to do such an extreme sport to have a good time.
tartalom:+ 1 Would it be cool though? If you want to look cool by swimming in a natural lake in winter try Lake Hévíz. The temperature of the Lake never goes below 24˙C, not even in the winter. In Hévíz it doesn't matter what season it is: it is always bathing time! This is a proven fact! Did you know? Tired muscles, cold toes, and stress dissolve in warm water! In the thermal spa pools, you can enjoy the hot steam all day and night at 36°C. Wherever you go, sooner or later (sooner is the better) you're bound to stumble upon a poolside. Melt yourself out with the power of steam! As soon as winter sets in, the sauna stones start to glow. Honey, fragrant, coconut, beer infusions, and refreshing saunas await you. You don't have to start with the 90°C Finnish sauna, instead start with the aroma or steam cabin and relax with the power of nature! A water experience in a different way! Ever been paddling in winter? Have you ever paddled at all? Only here, and only in winter, you can experience it on the Hévíz Stream. Not only the experience is special, but the landscape is also a sight to behold! Which is why only a very limited number of paddlers can paddle on a stretch of about 10 km. If you want to go on a canoe trip, you should book early for this programme! But good news: it is safe for children too and even recommended for beginners! In fact, zigzagging is even more fun. Forget the water! Warm water and steam are not the only ways to warm up. Explore the so called ‘Vadlán-lik (Wild Girl’s Cave) or find out yourself if the basalt organs really play some music or not. Finally, make a selfie from the top of one of the lookout towers of the Keszthely Hills, or from the Castle of Szigliget,with Lake Balaton and the basalt hills in the background! Catch fire! Would you like to participate in a small adventure tour, just here, just in town, preferably not too long? Join a torch-lit tour of the town, discover the secrets of Hévíz on a magical evening on our night tour! You can sign up for the tour at the Tourinform in Hévíz. There’s a Plan B! You arrived in the city, and it’s raining all day. Don't stay home! It's open now as well! If you like challenges and moving a lot The Adrenalin Arena in Alsópáhok is the perfect choice for you. The Arena is fun for adults and for children as well. For the less adventurous, Keszthely's Helikon Castle Museum is the place to visit. In the castle you can spend days, since there are six different exhibitions waiting for you to explore them all. You may also find some other thermal baths in the area as well filled with slides and many pools. You're here to relax, not to jump! Stay in the hotel and head to the spa. There's nothing better than one or more pampering sessions, a nice relaxing massage, a scented bath or some beauty treatments. Don’t forget to eat! Morning, noon, evening, anytime - have a steaming drink; tea, coffee, mulled wine, punch, hot chocolate and/or eat hot cream soups, pancakes, roasts, or the finest lángos in the city. You don't have to go down to the bar if you don't want to. Order everything from the hotel and spend the whole day in bed. Although you can do that at home too, although you would miss the room service! Change your perspective! No snow? You can still enjoy your winter vacation!

cím: Cycle by Lake Balaton every day
lead: Spring is here once more, and finally we can enjoy ourselves in the fresh air again. Spring and autumn are the best seasons for bicycle tours, however, cycling is a sport that you can pursuit in any season.
tartalom:+ 1 What’s more, cycling is more than a sport! While cycling, you have the possibility to discover the world on two wheels while you are relaxing. Not to mention that cycling is also environmentally friendly and healthy as well! The bicycle road around Lake Balaton has been completed for 15 years. Cyclist have already cycled around the Lake more than once, but they are also ready for new challenges. Cycling became so popular in the past years that the bicycle roads are as crowded as the highways, especially in the summer season. The Hungarian Cyclist Association have been working relentlessly on the BB365 project and its results are already used by every biker. What is BB365 exactly? It is an abbreviation which stands for Balaton Bike 365, meaning that by Lake Balaton it is possible to enjoy bicycle services all year around. Thanks to the project, sign boards were placed out which signal 800 kilometres of bicycle roads in total, four times the length of the complete Lake Balaton bicycle round. 45 different thematic routes were also created, which are also noted by boards. For example, the routes including the Festetics Heritage are red coloured. Circle tours always have letter combinations. The three-digit numbers always mean local routes, while two-digit numbers mean national roads. One-digit roads usually connect to international roads. Be cautious though: the new signs don’t always signal separate bicycle roads since they can also point to appointed car roads or dirt roads too. The BB365 webpage and application are perfect for seeing these roads as well. The BB365 application was awarded ‘The Application of the Year’ award by the Hungarian Marketing Association last year. Cycling fans are able to plan their routes around Lake Balaton in 7 languages. Due to the project, three bicycle centres were also created in Keszthely, in Balatonfüred and in Balatonföldvár. In these centres, bicycles can be rented, or guided tour can be also booked. Fixing services will be also available in the future. For what the BB365 application is good for? Just like in Google, you will be able to make a cycling tour plan, however, in the BB365 app you will only see the routes that you can also cycle on. You will immediately see the quality of the road (bicycle road, car road, dirt road) and the altitudes as well. You are also able to filter your search based on recommended routes if you for example travel with your family or you would like to cycle with a mountain bike. You are also able to rate the routes and recommend it to others. With the pictograms, you can see the sights of the region like castles, viewpoints, museums or churches. Based on the short details given of the sights, you can easily plan where to stop during your trip. You can also search accommodations, restaurants, service points or spots to take free water. Routes in the Keszthely Mountains Trips starting from Keszthely. You are able to connect to the 6-kilometre trail to Hévíz, to the world’s largest biologically active thermal lake.

So it's time to give you an overview of where and how much you can swim in the Hévíz area this summer after the adventure parks.

lead: The real summer arrived on June 1. There were places where the thermometers already showed 30°C on the first day of summer and many people were already bathing in Lake Balaton, despite the fact that spring was not very kind to us, so the heat arrived quite late. So it's time to give you an overview of where and how much you can swim in the Hévíz area this summer after the adventure parks.
tartalom:+ 1 The great advantage of this article is that it shows on a map which beach is where, and what is worth knowing about it, and you can even find pictures! If you are also interested in the prices, scroll down a little towards the end of the article! A black poi indicates the Hévíz Tófürdő and beach Red dots show the classic beaches on the Balaton shore In the place of burgundy pois, there are adventure parks and adventure baths The blue pois are lakes where you can't swim, but you can fish instead :) Let's see which are the classic beaches next to Lake Balaton. There are roughly 7+2 beaches near Hévíz that are very popular among guests. Keszthely City Beach | Keszthely Libás Beach | Alsógyenes Lidó Beach | Gyenesdiás Play Beach | Vonyarcvashegyi Lido Beach | Balatongyörök Beach | Balatonberény Beach + Dog Beach in Keszthely and Naturist Beach in Balatonberény It is typical of the above beaches that you can go for a walk or even take a bath outside of the high season. You can use the playgrounds and sports fields, but the buffets and restrooms are only open during the beach season. In the late spring period, you should expect that renovations, weeding, flower planting, and toys are being renovated, but by the beginning of June, almost all beaches can be visited. There are entrance tickets, where they start collecting from June 1, and where they start collecting from the beginning of the school holidays. The opening hours - as long as you have to buy a full price ticket - are usually between 8:00 and 18:00, but in many places you can buy an evening swimming ticket before closing, which is cheaper and usually after 6 or 7, entry is free. Most beaches have student and pensioner discounts, family tickets or weekly passes can also be purchased. In terms of accessibility, a common feature of the beaches in the area is that they are easy to find. By bicycle, the cash desks are almost within reach of the Balaton bicycle path, and by car, of course, you can park for free next to every beach. Moreover, with the exception of the dog beach and the Libás beach, all other beaches are close to the local train station, so if you can, you can even go by train. Lake Hévíz, as a uniqueness, is a spa, lake spa and beach spa all in one Unique in the world, Lake Hévíz combines thermal spas and beach spas in such a way that none of them really exist. Due to its uniqueness, you can bathe in the natural thermal spring all year round, and thanks to the covered parts, you can enjoy the experience of warm water even in pouring rain or snow. Depending on the weather, in the spring, usually in May, the beach area opens even earlier, where you can enjoy the pleasures of water around 30°C or even warmer before the Balaton beach season. The children's pools are only filled in mid-June, as they have heated normal water. From the point of view that you can swim in a real, natural, warm water lake and relax and sunbathe on its shore, it is more like a beach, but based on the services, opening hours and prices based on medicinal water, it can be classified more like a thermal spa. You definitely have to try it once, because it is really unique and special, completely different from all the usual beaches and adventure pools! Adventure baths and slide park Near Hévíz, we have to write about 3 major thermal and adventure baths and a slide park. Closer to Hévíz is the Kehida Thermal Bath in Kehidakustány, many people also visit the Karos Spa complex in Zalakaros, and Zalaszentgrót also has a thermal and adventure bath. Perhaps a little further, in Zalaegerszeg there is an Aquacity and slide park. The common feature of the first three thermal spas is that their indoor pools are open all year round, but in the summer season they also open their outdoor beach with adventure park, slides and a large green surface to the public. These baths, although they cannot be called classic beaches, can be visited regardless of the weather, since even if we cannot use the outdoor experiences, the indoor pools are still open. Another important feature they have in common is that they have pools with medicinal water and heated normal water pools. Aquacity, located next to the last-mentioned Zalaegerszeg, only operates in the summer, during the school holidays. It does not have an indoor bath, only outdoor pools and numerous slides, among which all ages can find their favorite. At the same time, just like the Balaton beaches, this adventure bath is only visited in nice, summer weather. The ticket prices of the spas and beaches do not reflect the quality of the services! On the slightly more expensive beaches, the extra program options and extra experience elements provide the basis for a higher price category, while the slightly cheaper beaches are typically smaller, more family-friendly, and offer fewer but equally high-quality services. In addition, all the classic beaches listed here (except for dogs and naturists) have Blue Wave certification and are multiple category winners (child-friendly beach, sporty beach, green beach). The different types of ticket prices mean that entrance tickets to most beaches in the pre-summer season, in June, are cheaper than in July and August.

THERMAL, MEDICINE AND EXPERIENCE POOLS IN LARGE HOTELS If water is your essence, we'll help you navigate the wide selection of hotels in Hévíz!

lead: Water is our lifeblood, without it, life would be unimaginable on this wonderful planet called Earth. However, water is not simply the source of life. It surrounds us in many forms.
tartalom:+ 1 Drink it! The recommended daily water intake is 2 litres for adults. This is the amount that everyone needs for ideal body function. What’s more, in Hévíz, you can also drinksulphurous medicinal water, which is recommended for many people. Drinking Hévíz medicinal water in moderation can relieve stomach aches and bile problems. You cantaste it at the public water fountains. Get in the steam! The sauna is good, many people like it. Hot steam and humid air are an important part of the bathing culture of many civilisations, be it a Roman tepidarium, a Turkish bath, a Japanese onsen or a Finnish sauna. The hot, humid air dilates pores, increases cellular metabolism, refreshes the skin, relaxes the mind and clears the respiratory system. Ice-cold delights! Water vapour is also useful and can be used if it is ice cold. On the one hand, we often cool ourselves with ice cubes, cold water spray or an ice bath after a sauna session, and on the other hand, the cryosauna, which cools the body with temperatures of around minus 140 degrees Celsius, is becoming more and more popular. This freezing treatment takes only two minutes but it is extremely effective. It regenerates cells, alleviates reduced vascular problems, speeds up metabolism and even helps you lose weight. It is no coincidence that competitive athletes used it first for rapid recovery. Inhale water vapour! Having mentioned breathing in hot steam, we should also highlight the other beneficial effects of inhaled vapour. Inhaling water vapour can provide the body with manyvaluable substances, which can be rapidly absorbed. You can think of oxygen therapy, for example, or the mist floating above the lake, which contains gaseous substances that, when inhaled, enhance the healing effect. Hydromassage for everyone! Probably no one has ever been to a spa without standing/ sitting under a water massage jet. The massaging effect of water has been used for a long time, so it's almostubiquitous in spas, wellness and adventure baths. However, water jet massage is not just a simple muscle-relaxing spa experience; it is also a significant treatment. It is also used in Hévíz carried out in a 34-37 degree Celsius water bath under the name of Tangentor therapy. Depending on the strength of the water jet, it can even move deeper muscle layers, and it causes an increase in blood flow to the treated area and has a good effect on lymphatic circulation. It is one of the most popular procedures for post-operative care. Electricity conducted into water? Why not? It may sound strange, as most people learn at an early age that it is not advisable to dry our hair in the bathtub. However, there are occasions when conducting electricity into the water - much less than 220 V, of course - can be useful. One of these occasions is called the galvanic bath, which is mostly used to relieve arthritis and pain. This treatment should only be used under medical supervision and on a therapeutic basis. Typically, the hands and feet are placed in hot water while a low current is passed through the body thanks to the conductivity of the water. Splash! Of course, the best way to enjoy the water is to take a bath in it. From refreshing showers and adventure pools to the thermal water of Lake Hévíz, there's hardly a place where you can't spend precious minutes and hours in hot water. It is relaxing, stress relieving and beneficial for the whole body. Doing sports in water is the most joint-friendly form of exercise, so you can now join aqua fitness and aqua spinning classes in many places. Swimming exercises the whole body, but just floating in the silky hot water of Lake Hévíz can also do a lot to keep you fit.

cím: Winter wellness tips for seniors in Hévíz
lead: When winter arrives in Hévíz, relaxation takes on a whole new meaning.
Warm thermal waters, gentle wellness treatments, and a peaceful atmosphere create the perfect setting for rest and regeneration.
For senior guests, Hévíz in winter offers a unique balance of comfort, health, and tranquility.
tartalom:+ 1 There is something truly magical about winter arriving in Hévíz. The air turns crisp, steam rises from the lake, and the town slows down a little… and that is exactly what makes it so special. For senior visitors, Hévíz becomes one of the most relaxing destinations at this time of year: warm thermal waters, peaceful walks, and wellness in every form. Here are a few tips on how to make the most of a winter getaway in Hévíz! 1. Steaming thermal water – winter at its best If there is one place where winter and wellness are a perfect match, it is Lake Hévíz. The contrast between the warm water and the chilly air is relaxation in itself. Bathing sessions of 20–30 minutes are ideal in winter: they warm the body, ease muscle tension, and are gentle on the joints. Tip: In the morning, the lake is even calmer and more peaceful, creating a truly intimate atmosphere. 2. Winter spa treatments – when your body warms up too Winter is especially beneficial for warm therapeutic treatments. At this time of year, massages, mud therapies, and weight bath treatments somehow feel even more effective. Among senior guests, favorites include pleasantly warm medicinal mud that helps the body relax, indoor physiotherapy sessions led by experienced professionals, and underwater massage for those seeking a little extra pampering. A multi-day spa treatment can work wonders, especially for joints tired from the winter cold. 3. Indoor wellness – when you feel like staying inside all day Hévíz’s wellness hotels are a true refuge in winter as well: adventure pools, whirlpools, steam cabins, infrared saunas – everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing day indoors. Especially recommended for senior guests: Infrared sauna, as it provides gentle, joint-friendly warmth Steam cabin, ideal if the dry winter air irritates the respiratory system Quiet relaxation pools – in many hotels, mornings feel almost like having the place to yourself 4. Pampering in a winter atmosphere: Quiet wellness – aromatherapy and relaxation In winter, Hévíz seems to have a different scent: more spicy, calmer, more cozy. This atmosphere pairs perfectly with seasonal wellness treatments: lavender or citrus aromatherapy circulation-boosting foot massage hydrating facial treatments to protect the skin from the cold Each treatment feels a bit like a mini wellness celebration. 5. Sauna, done wisely – gentle yet refreshing In winter, the sauna can feel like paradise, but it’s important to enjoy it the right way. A senior-friendly approach: start with an infrared sauna if you choose a Finnish sauna, stay for 6–8 minutes skip the ice plunge – a lukewarm shower is enough rest for a while before returning The secret is a slow, calm rhythm. 6. Staying active in winter – gently and safely Instead of long walks, winter is the perfect time for softer, joint-friendly forms of movement: water gymnastics in an indoor pool gentle or modified yoga spine-strengthening exercises a short, easy walk around the lake on flat terrain 7. Short winter walks – when the town shows a completely different side In winter, the steaming waters of the Hévíz Stream turn the town into an almost fairytale-like setting. As the warm water meets the cold air, a delicate mist settles above the stream, making every walk a special experience. The walkways around the lake are easy to stroll along even in winter, and thanks to the unique microclimate, it is often warmer here than in other parts of the town. Not only the steaming stream is a breathtaking sight – Hévíz’s built heritage is equally charming in the winter season. Recommended pace: shorter walks with frequent breaks. The steaming water, quiet streets, and slow rhythm create a truly idyllic winter atmosphere. 8. Winter cultural moments – warm indoors, magical scenery outside Hévíz offers plenty of cultural experiences even in winter, all comfortably enjoyable despite the cold. If you feel like taking a break from wellness, the season invites you to cozy indoor programs such as exhibitions, local concerts, charming cafés, and of course Hévíz’s cultural events. Current programs This combination of wellness + culture works especially well for senior guests, offering relaxation and inspiration in perfect balance. 9. Light winter dishes – warm yourself from the inside, too Hévíz restaurants offer plenty of winter dishes that are warm yet easy to digest. Hot soups, light fish dishes, vegetable-based meals, and steaming poultry specialties are especially comforting during the colder months. Local restaurants usually pay special attention to wellness guests, offering lighter menu options as well. Many places in Hévíz also provide sugar-free, lactose-free, and light alternatives. Tip: It’s worth choosing lighter meals made from local ingredients. And after a good lunch, it’s time for a relaxing afternoon rest! Hévíz is at its most intimate in winter – the perfect place if you’re looking for physical and mental renewal. Snow-covered Hévíz is quiet, cozy, and deeply restorative at the same time. The warm thermal water, healing treatments, indoor wellness facilities, and atmospheric winter walks create a combination from which senior guests can benefit especially well. And one thing is certain: those who experience the “winter Hévíz feeling” once often become returning visitors.

tartalom:+ 1 There are board games that simply entertain. And then there are those that also offer an experience, a memory, and an emotion. Hévíz a GyógyíTó is exactly that kind of game: a light-hearted, laughter-filled board game that playfully introduces the world of healing in Hévíz. We asked Beáta Süténé Tüttő about this fantastic and unique board game. Basics – what is the game about? What is the name of the game, and what kind of atmosphere does it promise at first glance? The name of the game is Hévíz a GyógyíTó. Even the title suggests relaxation, healing, and a touch of playful humor – exactly the kind of atmosphere that characterizes the town of Hévíz and the unique world of Lake Hévíz. What is the story and theme of the game? The game is based on the healing treatments carried out at Lake Hévíz and at various locations throughout the town, such as therapies for musculoskeletal conditions and rehabilitation after injuries. As players move across the board, they take part in elements of the traditional healing cure: bathing in the lake, mud treatments, weight bath therapy, and other complementary treatments. In this way, the game presents the complex therapeutic packages of Hévíz in a playful format. Who is the game recommended for? It is an excellent choice as a gift, a souvenir, for winter evenings, or for family and friends’ gatherings. Recommended from the age of 16 for anyone who enjoys light, cheerful board games. Where is it available and how much does it cost? The price of the game is 8,000 HUF, and the proceeds are used for charitable purposes. Soon it will also be available at the Hévíz Tourinform Office with game rules in English, German, and Russian. Will there be a sequel? Yes! By Christmas 2026, a children’s board game titled “The Wildlife of Lake Hévíz” is planned, and work on it has already begun. Technical basics of the game How many players can play? Minimum 2, maximum 8 players. How many spaces are on the board? There are a total of 59 spaces, 25 of which include tasks. Gameplay – what does it feel like to play? Is it easy to learn the rules? Yes, very easy. The rules are quick to understand and do not require long explanations. How long does one game take? Approximately 15–20 minutes, so several rounds can fit into one evening. What type of game is it? It is entirely luck-based, requiring no strategic thinking – which makes it relaxing and stress-free. Is there cooperation or competition? The goal is the same for every player: to reach the finish line, in other words, to heal. If only two people are playing, it is recommended to use a special die that includes only the numbers 1 and 2. Experience factor – what does the game offer? What emotions does it evoke during play? Lots of laughter. It is a light, cheerful game that brings relaxation rather than tension. What kind of conversations does it inspire? Those who have already taken part in real Hévíz treatments often relive their experiences, share stories, and recall memories. Is it replayable? Yes, very much so. Players do not land on task spaces in every game, so each round offers a slightly different experience. Design and quality Who created the game? The questions and gameplay were designed by Beáta Tüttő. The graphics were created by Nóra Aradvári, and the prototype player figures were designed by Liza Hanna Szegődi. Both creators have mothers who work at the spa hospital, which makes their emotional connection to the game even stronger. What is the quality of the game components like? The board, figures, and all other elements are of excellent quality and a pleasure to handle. Strengths and unique features What truly sets the game apart? Its unique, hand-crafted graphics and the fact that it is connected to a real place and the world of Hévíz’s healing treatments. Personal experience Why would you play it again? Because it feels good to relax and heal at the lake – even when I cannot be there in person, only in my imagination. Summary For what occasions is this board game ideal? Family evenings, gatherings with friends, holidays, gifts, or even as a way to get into the mood before traveling. Who would you wholeheartedly recommend it to? All board game enthusiasts aged 16 and over. In one sentence: why is it worth trying? For the experience of Hévíz’s healing, relaxation, and unique atmosphere.
