Hévíz, Hungary's best-known spa town and spa, is located only 6 km from the north-western tip of Lake Balaton. The healing power of the thermal water that emerges here has been known and used since Roman times.
The unique Hévíz lake is Europe's largest, a 4.7 ha medicinal lake fed by abundant underground springs. The water temperature of the lake is 33-34 °C in summer, but it does not drop below 26 °C in winter, so those looking for regeneration or healing can enjoy the healing power of the hot spring in a wonderful environment at any time of the year.
