The Island Eco Farm offers accommodation in the vicinity of the Veľký Lél Island, not far from Komárno, as well as various programmes for those who come here. This venue, which offers a multi-day programme in itself, has been marked as the first stop of the cycling tour, where bird watching and guided field trips are also possible.
- there is a stunning view of the nature surrounding Veľké Kosihy including the Danube reed beds on the border of the village, which is home to a nature reserve and a multitude of bird species, from the lookout tower created within the framework of the project ‘Let's clean the area along the Danube’.
There is a horseshoe-shaped backwater near the village of Číčov, which was formed by the breach of the dam in 1899. Although the damage caused by the floods was enormous, the ecosystem that developed here is invaluable as it gives home to many animal and plant species. One of the most valuable environmental areas of Central Europe is suitable to receive tourists, as (with the exception of the nesting period) an educational trail awaits those who are curious and wish to get closer to Nature. If you choose this tour and walk through Číčov, do not miss the Zichy-Kálnoky castle and castle park in the village.
The Danube Nature Park was created to support environmental education and the so-called soft tourism in addition to the preservation of the natural and the cultural heritage of the region and its use for rural development. There are plenty of interesting things in the area of the Great Bustard Environmental Education Centre: a thatched pavilion, a barefoot path, a live willow structure, a bird-watching tower, and a rope slide. There are permanent programmes in the Centre to give visitors a better understanding and increased knowledge of the magical region of the Rye Island.

Close to Nature
If you would like to take some time away from the rat race of everyday life and just BE, then this tour is for you. Rousseau's idea of “back to nature” is something that appeals to modern man who wishes to get away from the overwhelming hustle and bustle of everyday life to the quiet unequivocal order of nature. In Japan, Shinrin-yoku or forest bathing very popular, an activity where participants go for long 2-2,5 hour walks in the woods, as if essnetially “bathing” in nature. Why don’t you dive in, too? Enjoy some nature therapy on two wheels in the Csallóköz and Szigetköz.
On the trail of the Romans - Ripa Pannonica
From Britain to Mesopotamia, the Roman Empire conquered the entirety of the Mediterranean coastal regions and at its peak, controlled a 6 000 000 km stretch of dry land. Defending such an expansive empire that was also very diverse geographically and culturally was only possible under very organized conditions. The several thousand kilometer long Limes (Latin: “path”) served this purpose, the borderline traversing thousands of kilometers across mountains and valleys, winding along the river lines was given the name “ripa.” The section of Roman limes along the Danube in Hungary bears the name Ripa Pannonica. Visit each of the municipalities where the remnants of the limes can be seen. And while you're on the tour, do not forget that you are at a potential World Heritage sight, as this section of the limes is among the Hungarian sights on the UNESCO world heritage tentative list.
