Morbisch Attractions

Situated 5.5km/3.5mi south of Rust, near the Hungarian frontier, lies Mörbisch (115m/377ft), an attractive little town of traditional Burgenland style with gaily decorated arcaded houses and long narrow lanes. A mineral spring was bored here in 1959, and a 1.7km/1mi long causeway leads to the bathing beach, with an island offshore. There are excellent facilities here for various water sports, including surfing and sailing, and a floating stage on which performances of operettas (Mörbischer Seefestspiele) are given in August, culminating in a firework display.

The town of Mörbisch is known for its beautiful floral decor.
