Walking and Cycling in Hungary
Size isn’t everything! Hungary may be a small country, but it packs an awful lot within its borders. There is diversity in its landscape, which ranges from flat and grassy plains to lush peaks and valleys, and in its culture, which makes room for both traditional wooden churches and vibrant modern nightclubs. Budapest is a hive of top-class music and art, with one of the world’s best opera houses and a host of museums and galleries, while bustling festivals take place all over the country at all times of the year.
Lake Balaton is the largest in Central Europe, and ideal for sailing or sunbathing. Near by is the famous spa town of Hévíz, where you can wallow in a natural thermal lake even in the depths of winter.
If you like to keep active and get back to nature, there are countless marked routes for hiking, cycling or horse-riding, often through stunning scenery.
The language of Hungary is not widely spoken outside the Carpathian basin. Even its folk songs differ from the other nations', despite the fact that Hungarian people have been living in the heart of Europe for the last 1100 years. Hungary is rich in history and in creativity – it’s the birthplace of world-famous inventors, scientists, explorers, composers and sports stars.
This is a place of variety, colour and passion.
