Vagyés

Vagyés, also known as Vagyes or Vagyes River, is a significant waterway in Hungary, flowing through the Great Hungarian Plain. It is a left tributary of the Tisza River, which itself is a major tributary of the Danube. The Vagyés River originates in the Börzsöny Mountains, near the town of Börzsöny, and flows generally eastward, passing through several villages and towns before joining the Tisza near the city of Szolnok. The river is approximately 150 kilometers long and has a drainage basin of about 1,700 square kilometers. It plays a crucial role in the local ecosystem, providing habitat for various plant and animal species, and supports agricultural activities in the region. The Vagyés River is also an important water source for the surrounding communities, contributing to the local economy through fishing, recreation, and tourism. The river's waters are monitored for quality to ensure the sustainability of these activities and the preservation of the natural environment.
