Harkány Gyógyfürdő in southern Hungary near the Croatian border is internationally renowned for possessing the highest hydrogen sulfide and iodine content of any mineral water in Europe — a combination that makes Harkány's sulfurous-iodine waters distinctive within a long Hungarian thermal tradition. The outdoor pools of Harkány attract hundreds of thousands of European visitors annually to one of the most remarkable natural waters on the continent, and the spa's relaxed open-air character alongside the grape-growing villages of the Villány wine region nearby creates a distinctive relaxing-and-gastronomic Southern Hungarian experience. The nearby UNESCO Pécs — Hungary's most beautifully preserved Roman and Ottoman city — and the Villány-Siklós wine route producing some of Hungary's finest Cabernet and Merlot wines complete an exceptional cultural and wellness destination in Europe's southernmost Hungarian county.

Insider tip — Harkány is Hungary's southernmost spa town, with sulfide-iodine thermal water that carries a warm earthy scent characteristic of the region's geology. The outdoor pools are surrounded by a lush thermal park just a few kilometers from the Croatian border. The main pool holds thousands of visitors on summer weekends, so early arrival is advisable to secure a peaceful spot.
