The park's name refers to a 'morotva,' a traditional Hungarian term for an oxbow lake created by river erosion.
The ice rink installed at the site uses specialized cooling technology to maintain a surface even during mild winter conditions.
The area serves as a primary venue for Berettyóújfalu's local cultural and communal festivals throughout the year.
Morotva Liget is a multifunctional recreational park and leisure area situated in the town of Berettyóújfalu. The site serves as a community hub, featuring an artificial ice rink during the winter months and versatile outdoor event spaces during the warmer seasons. The grounds are anchored by a large natural pond, which historically formed part of the Berettyó River's meandering landscape. It is widely used by local residents for sport, walking, and outdoor gatherings. The facility is managed to support both professional training and casual recreational ice skating. Surrounding the water are landscaped green spaces designed for public accessibility.

Check the local social media pages for the facility before visiting, as ice rink operations are highly weather-dependent.
Bring your own skates if you prefer, though rentals are typically available on-site during the winter season.
Visit during the shoulder seasons to enjoy the walking paths when the park is less crowded than during community events.
Do not attempt to walk on the frozen pond outside of the designated, maintained ice rink areas.
The ice rink is strictly seasonal and operates only during winter months, subject to temperature conditions; the park grounds are generally accessible year-round.
Standard public park conduct applies; during skating sessions, follow the direction of flow on the ice and wear appropriate winter activewear.
