Dragonfly

Dragonflies are abound with great variety in Kiskunság National Park due to the wide range of different habitats from alkaline lakes through freshwater lakes, the neighbouring 2 largest rivers of Hungary, River Danube and River Tisza, oxbow lakes, channels, dykes and ponds. We have plenty of species each year even in our garden at our different ponds.

Below you can find a gallery and under an incomplete list of the most frequently seen Dragonflies in our garden and at the nearby areas which you can visit during your stay:
