Törek Lakes Study Trail lies in a 300-acre nature reserve next to the artificial ponds fed by the Cinege Stream. To get there, exit main road 7 between Siófok and Balatonszéplak towards Siófok-Töreki (milestone 116), and you'll find the first stop of the trail right behind the petrol station. You can spot birds like western marsh harriers, sand martins and European bee-eaters, but in migration season you might catch sight of other species as well that are not nesting in Hungary. The bird-watching tower is there to aid us in this. You’ll also find a playground, an open-air fire pit, and two rest stops along the trail.
