Every spring around St. George's Day (24th April),
before the grazing starts on the Hortobágy Puszta (barren), there is an event to celebrate
the beginning of the new grazing season. This day can give an excellent opportunity to visitors
to gain knowledge about traditions and customs of the people of Hortobágy.
On this day, Hungarian
grey cattle
herds are driven through on the famous Nine Hole Bridge of Hortobágy. Herdmen dance
traditional dances in their traditional wear.
Visitors are welcome to taste the special local "puszta" dishes, which are cooked by our
herdmen or by the
Baking Masters of Hortobágy.
An open organic market, where you can find most products of the Ecoregion of Hortobágy, is
hold on the bank of the Hortobágy River.
All visitors are welcome! Registration is not necessary.
