A 70-hectare oxbow lake covered with water lilies north of Lipót gives the town a strong connection to nature. There is also a thermal and leisure bath, a Baroque church and the story of a local bakery. If you are looking for accommodation in Lipót, this mix can help you choose what to focus on: the bathing complex, lakeside scenery and culture each offer a different perspective on your days here.
Bathing and a water-lily landscape
Lipót’s main tourist attraction is considered to be its fully renovated and expanded thermal and leisure bath, with six pools. The 1,200 m² beach pool includes a wave pool, a water amusement park and large slides. The 10-hectare landscaped grounds add beach volleyball, table tennis, badminton, massages, aqua Zumba and a large playground to the bathing facilities. Water activities, exercise and other leisure options are all available on the same grounds. The thermal water was classified as medicinal water in 2004.
North of Lipót, the water-lily-covered oxbow lake borders the town. A nature trail runs along its shore, with shelters from the rain, rest areas and birdwatching hides. The trail thus combines the lakeside landscape with opportunities to take a break and watch birds. The nature trail focuses on nature and observation, while the bath brings together bathing and leisure activities. When choosing Lipót, you can weigh these different themes separately as you plan your visit. In the wider travel destination of Győr-Moson-Sopron County, the Fertő/Neusiedler See cultural landscape encompasses Eurasia’s westernmost steppe lake, as well as wetlands, saline soils, reed beds and shoreline areas. The region’s natural landscape there is more varied than that of the water-lily-covered oxbow lake north of Lipót.
Church art and other features of the town
The Church of Saint Clement in Lipót was completed in the Baroque style in 1777. Among its most important works of art is a fresco attributed to Maulbertsch. The church also preserves a Passion painting that is believed to have come from the Capuchin monastery in Mosonmagyaróvár. This brings together a clearly dated Baroque building and works of art whose attribution and provenance are expressed with different degrees of certainty.
A protected chestnut avenue stands along the road between Lipót and Darnózseli. The Kövecses Lake and the Kengyártói Lakes are also among Lipót’s fishing waters. The church, avenue and lakes represent different aspects of the town: architectural history, a protected tree-lined landscape and fishing waters.
Bakery history and seasonal visits
The history of Lipóti Pékség began in Lipót in 1992 with a team of four. At the Lipóti bakery, traditional baking craftsmanship is combined with modern technology. The year marks the beginning of the company’s history in the town; craftsmanship and technology describe another aspect of the bakery. It also has a glass-walled gallery visitor center that welcomes visitors during the summer holidays. Specific dates may vary from year to year, so check in advance if you are planning to include this seasonal activity.
