Videos | Gallery | Unexplored | Stories
Neusiedler See – Seewinkel National Park is part of a huge Cross Border National Park with Hungary that covers more than 44 000 ha altogether. If you are a bird watcher then this is the place you are most likely to visit. As a RAMSAR site, it has since 1982, been protecting the birds in the area, due to the alkaline waters, reed beds and marshland that surrounds the area.
Neusiedler See – Seewinkel National Park is primarily set up for bird watching and the protection of this area. There are well equipped visitor centres and plenty of areas to view birds from the footpaths that have been carefully laid out. The area is as a frequent hotspot for university trip from the University of Vienna, as there is ongoing research in the area with lake-linked topics.
The Neusiedler See – Seewinkel National Park straddles 7 communities in the area and around 50% of the area is untouched by human intervention even though in the past much of the area was cultivated for agricultural use, today it is a habitat to welcome migratory birds and nesting bird alike.
