Fejetek Marshes - National Parks - Kiskunhalas

North-east of the town, on the left side of road 53 is the Fejetek Marshes - an important conservation area, which is part of the Kiskunsag National Park (a sign shows the way, it can be visited at any time).
After the draining of the so-called Nagy-to ('Great Lake') a drying out marshland was created. From the rare and protected plants to be found here, Menyanthes trifoliata and Pedicularis palustris are the most valuable. The orchids of this area are also under protection. Sadly, due to long years of water-shortage, the natural vegetation is vanishing.
