Kishegye and the panoramic lookout
Kishegy, rising on the border of Lelle, reaches an altitude of almost 300 meters above sea level and is one of the most excellent wine-growing regions in the area. From the panoramic terrace located in the well-kept park forest, in good weather you can see all the way to Keszthely Bay, and the view also includes the silhouette of Badacsony, Tóti Hill and Gulács.

St. Donatus Chapel
The 18th century Baroque chapel on Kishegy was built by Baron György Majthényi and named after Saint Donat, the patron saint of winegrowers. The building is a listed building and was given its current form after renovation in 2014. The nearby observation deck can also be reached via a path starting from the chapel.

Restaurants

Majthényi Press House (wine terrace)
Located in the southern part of Balatonlelle, on the picturesque Kishegy, the former winemaker's house was built in 1784 by the Majthényi family.

Important: the place now operates primarily as a wine terrace, and its kitchen is not always active - it is worth informing yourself in advance about the current offer.
