Kitesurfing, wing foiling and foiling on Lake Neusiedl
Lake Neusiedl in Burgenland is a large steppe lake on the Hungarian border, with reeds along much of its shore. From 10 May to 20 September kiting within 200 m of the shore is only allowed in four zones marked with yellow buoys, at Podersdorf, Neusiedl am See, Breitenbrunn and Purbach, and all year only in daylight and good visibility. There is no tide, but in a strong north-westerly the water shifts to the south of the lake, leaving less water in the north.
