Beschrijving
Mekszikópuszta is located in the Fertő-Hanság National Park in North-West Hungary at the south-eastern edge of Lake Neusiedl (HU: Fertő tó). Though relatively small, it comprises a variety of landscapes from lake shore and reed belts to the typical Hungarian puszta (Pannonian steppes). The birds you can encounter here include several species of geese and ducks e.g., Grauwe Gans, Zomertaling, Slobeend, Krooneend, Witoogeend; waders such as Kemphaan, Steltkluut, Kluut, Groenpootruiter, Tureluur, Zwarte Ruiter, Kleine Plevier, Wulp, Grutto; reed warblers; herons; raptors including Bruine Kiekendief, Zeearend, Boomvalk, Slechtvalk; Bijeneter, Hop, Grauwe Klauwier and Gele Kwikstaart are regularly seen in spring and summer and occasionally Paapje and Roodborsttapuit can be spotted. Steenloper, Kanoet and Drieteenstrandloper are among rarities that can be encountered in autumn.

JaExtra info
The southern part of the route follows a path along a small channel and contains 2 small lookout platforms. Another platform is located next to the 8521 road. Unfortunately there is no footpath along the road but usually there is not much traffic so it is safe to walk or ride a bike.
