The “Gift of the Danube” – Szigetköz

Szigetköz – between the Danube’s main channel and the Moson-arms – is a watery flatland with scattered villages that is noted for fishing and wildfowl. Szigetköz is the largest island of Hungary and is actually moorland, partly drained and recovered through canalization. It is called the “Gift of the Danube” with good reason as it was formed by the alluvial deposits of the river, when splitting into many branches, the Danube has built a multitude of islands. A wide array of flora and fauna awaits lovers of nature.
