🌿 What does conscious grassland management mean around Lake Hévíz?

At the Hévíz St. Andrew Rheumatology Hospital and Spa, work on the protected area surrounding Lake Hévíz goes far beyond the “No Mow May” initiative. The focus is on a complex, year-round nature conservation approach.

The goal is to create a sustainable green space management system that supports:
💧 natural water retention
🌱 biodiversity protection
🌼 improving the ecological condition of grassland areas
🏥 while also considering the comfort and health aspects of spa guests

The well-maintained parks continue to preserve their elegant appearance, while in certain areas experts apply a more nature-friendly, mosaic-style mowing system.
