VIDEO: This is how a fleet of boats is heading towards Lake Balaton
One of the new passenger ships of the Balaton Shipping Company (Bahart) is towed on the Sió Canal at Medina on 24 June 2023. The canal has been made navigable by the necessary de-watering of Lake Balaton. The vessels set sail on the Danube from the Komárom shipyard on the morning of 21 June. They will sail 272 kilometres to the mouth of the Sió and then 121 kilometres on the Sió Channel to reach Lake Balaton. Source: MTI/Dániel Kiss
A convoy of almost 20 boats approached Lake Balaton on the Sió Channel. On Monday evening, the convoy docked at Ozora, Tolna County.
