At this special event for nature lovers, many thousands of wild geese create the spectacle and good mood. The 23rd Tata Wild Goose Festival will take place on 25 November 2023. The great majority of the wild geese entering Hungary use roughly 18 large gathering areas as regular resting grounds. Forty to fifty thousand birds can congregate at key locations, such as the Old Lake in Tata, to spend the night. Tata is the “City of Living Waters”, where the natural and built environments intertwine. The promenades encircling the lake provide the ideal surroundings for bird watching.
