Lake Maróc
Where Nature and Fishing Come Together
Hidden among the natural treasures of the Mura Region, Lake Maróc is a true gem, cherished not only by nature lovers but also by anglers seeking peace, relaxation, and excellent fishing opportunities. Nestled among the rolling hills of Zala County, the lake offers a tranquil escape throughout the year, where the only sounds are birdsong and the gentle ripples of the water.
Covering nearly 11.5 hectares, Lake Maróc is renowned for its outstanding fishing. Thanks to regular fish stocking and responsible fishery management, the lake is home to a rich and diverse fish population. Anglers can expect to catch common carp, grass carp, pike, pike-perch (zander), European catfish, bream, crucian carp, and several other freshwater species, making the lake an ideal destination for both beginners and experienced fishermen.
The lake is managed by the Angling Association of the Associated Municipalities of Bázakerettye, Kiscsehi, Lasztonya, Lispeszentadorján and Maróc. The Association is committed to maintaining and improving the lake, ensuring healthy fish stocks, and providing a clean, well-maintained environment so that every visitor can enjoy a memorable experience.
Lake Maróc is the perfect destination for a peaceful morning of fishing, a family outing, or even a relaxing weekend surrounded by nature. Every season reveals a different side of the lake: spring brings an abundance of birdlife, summer offers lush green shores, autumn paints the surrounding forests in vibrant colours, and winter creates an atmosphere of complete tranquillity.
