Beschrijving
The Rusanda Nature Park is characterized by significant biodiversity of plants and animals, predominantly birds. The area is dominated by the Rusanda salt lake which attracts many shorebirds, especially during migration seasons, including Wulp, Regenwulp, Steltkluut, Kluut, Grutto, Kemphaan, Bonte Strandloper, Krombekstrandloper, Kleine Strandloper, Drieteenstrandloper, Bontbekplevier, Kleine Plevier, Zilverplevier, and Goudplevier. The mud from the lake is used by the "Rusanda" Special Rehabilitation Hospital (also known as 'Rusanda Spa') for therapeutic treatments since 1867.
The park surrounding the spa is a home for a breeding colony of Roodpootvalk, Torenvalk, Roek, and Kauw, many songbirds like Putter, Groenling, Pimpelmees, Goudhaan, Boerenzwaluw, and Huiszwaluw as well as a wintering location for Ransuil.
In the reeds and saline meadows around the lake common are Rietgors, Buidelmees, Baardman, Grote Karekiet, Kleine Karekiet, Grauwe Gors, and Veldleeuwerik.
The saline lake covers a surface of 4 km2, and its water is of similar salinity to the sea. It has been speculated that Rusanda lake is one of the remnants of the ancient Pannonian Sea, but the lake is probably a fossil bed of the Tisza river.
There are two birding observation towers. One is at the lake shore near the Spa buildings, from where shorebirds and waterbirds can be observed. The second one is far at the northwest edge of the lake, where common are shorebirds and saline grassland species.

During the summer, the water levels may shrink and it could be possible to walk over the salt mud. But be extra careful as unexploded bombs from WW2 are found in two locations inside the lake (location marked on the map).
