6 :00 Gathering in front of the hotels, then travel to the first stop by bus 1. Salt affected soils: Solonchaks The Fertő / Neusiedlersee Cultural Landscape is on UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites. Lake Fertő is a shallow, salt lake. The large grasslands and colourful meadows around the lake provides home for many species of birds. The characteristic soil types are solonchak and solonchak-solonetz soils. 2. Water affected soils: Histosols Another hot spot is the swamp forests of FHNP. In the '60-s forestation rate was low, but there were on several places Alder- and Willow swamps or Oaks as well. After the drainage, there was a significant rearrangement of the wooded areas. The original woods that remained (Alnus sp.) represent the natural heritage. Lunch at Kantár Csárda (Vitnyéd) 6

Hard-faced gravel layer with iron compounds were form by rivers. This layer hinders the thickening of the tilth and impairs the water management and the air circulation of soil as well. 4. Effect of grazing: Cambisols To introduce the diversity of Sopron, we will visit a Hornbeam and Sessile Oak forest on the eastern border of the city.
