Neusiedler See FKK (Podersdorf)

The Neusiedler See is unique in the Austrian landscape — a shallow, warm, steppe lake on the Hungarian border, the largest endorheic lake in Central Europe. Where the Carinthian and Salzkammergut lakes are deep, cold, and mountain-enclosed, the Neusiedler See is rarely more than 1.8m deep, wind-exposed, surrounded by reed belts and the flat Pannonian steppe, and reaching 28°C in summer. The FKK section near Podersdorf am See — the main beach town on the Austrian side of the lake — is the most accessible naturist spot on this distinctive body of water. The lake is a UNESCO World Heritage Site (Fertő-Hanság National Park on both sides of the border) and a major wind- and kite-surfing destination; the flat water and reliable summer winds make it perfect for board sports. The FKK area is marked and separate from the windsurfing sections.
