The Tihany peninsula is known in Hungary for its lavender fields, which grow in the volcanic soil of the interior. They flower in early summer, normally between late June and early July, and the village fills with lavender products. They can be seen from the paths that run from the village towards the inner lake; respect the private fields and do not pick flowers. Outside that season, the walk is still worthwhile for the views, though without the colour.
Tips
- Go early in July The morning light and fewer people on the paths.
