Medical, wellness and active tourism<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hungary has excellent geothermal potentials and is considered an internationally respected spa-power due to its thermal waters containing various minerals; the fifth in the hierarchy of the countries that have mineral waters under the surface. 60 towns own mineral water resource, 35 of which provide medical treatment in their spas.<\/p>\n

16% of mineral waters in Hungary belong to the Hajd\u00fas\u00e1g region, which is the most important tourist attraction of the area and the second in medical tourism. Furthermore, Hajd\u00faszoboszl\u00f3 is outstanding in the international market. Its mineral springs were discovered by geologist Ferenc P\u00e1vai-Vajna in the 1920s. Most of these springs provide mineral water rich in alkaline-hydro-carbonate, iodine and bromide to use for drinking treatments of stomach and intestine problems, and as hydrotherapy for curing rheumatism, locomotive, gynaecologic and dermatologic diseases.<\/p>\n

Since the unique potential of the area was recognized, investments into medical tourism have become more frequent since the last decade. As a result, several new buildings have been built and also the existing ones have been modernized. Almost all the larger towns (Hajd\u00faszoboszl\u00f3, Debrecen, Hajd\u00fan\u00e1n\u00e1s, P\u00fcsp\u00fcklad\u00e1ny, Beretty\u00f3\u00fajfalu, Hajd\u00fadorog, Hajd\u00fab\u00f6sz\u00f6rm\u00e9ny, Balmaz\u00fajv\u00e1ros, Tiszacsege, Kaba, Polg\u00e1r, N\u00e1dudvar, F\u00f6ldes) in the county will offer spa services, including two outstanding spa centres in Europe: in Debrecen and Hajd\u00faszoboszl\u00f3.<\/p>\n

Aquaticum, in the Great Forest in Debrecen (Debreceni Nagyerd\u0151), an enormous centre with a thermal spa, a beach, a wellness hotel and an experience bath of Mediterranean atmosphere offer several places of great interest. The aforementioned Hajd\u00faszoboszl\u00f3 spa is known as \u2018Mecca of the rheumatic\u2019. Its \u2018Mediterranean sandy seaside\u2019 surrounded by palm trees flanks a pool of 6,200 m2<\/sup> water surface that is the largest man-made pool in Central Europe. Aquapark, which was the first slide park in Hungary and with its slides starting from a 12 meter-high tower, and the spectacle pools as well as the pirate ship and realistic figures of animals are also the specialty of the centre. People of all ages will be offered the best form of relaxation, medical treatment or aquatic amusement.<\/p>\n

The Stud Farm in M\u00e1ta (M\u00e1tai Lovasfalu) in Hortob\u00e1gy is a gem of horse-riding tourism, where the traditional Nonius herds can be found in their ingenious surroundings. TB Ranch in Ny\u00edradony, S\u00e1ri Manor (S\u00e1ri Major) in Ebes and Arbo Farm (Arbo Tanya) in B\u00e1nk establish the authentic atmosphere of villages.
