Lenti Thermal Bath in Lenti, Zala County, near the Slovenian and Croatian borders in southwestern Hungary, draws sodium and bicarbonate-rich thermal water from the Pannonian Basin's southwestern geological formations, offering thermal bathing in a border-region town whose thermal resources have become the primary driver of tourism in this otherwise rural and agriculturally focused corner of Hungary. Zala County's southwestern region borders the Slovenian Prekmurje and Croatian Međimurje, creating a cross-border thermal tourism zone where Hungarian, Slovenian, and Croatian visitors share the geothermal endowment of the Pannonian Basin's southwestern margin. Lenti's thermal bath exemplifies Hungary's policy of developing geothermal resources for rural economic development, transforming small provincial towns into wellness tourism destinations that attract visitors far beyond their local catchment area.
