Explore Hungary’s hidden caves: Night tours, bat watches, and Stone Age adventures await in March!

Several programmes, including a night watch of bats, “extreme tours” of caves in the night and travelling back in time to explore the Stone Age, will be offered to the public in March, marking the month of caves, the Active and Ecotourism Development Centre (Aktív- és Ökoturisztikai Fejlesztési Központ) said on Friday.

This year, visitors will have the opportunity to explore caves and sites that are otherwise closed to the public, the centre said in a statement. Programmes also include tours led by experts revealing “secret spots in caves”, photo tours, interactive activities and night tours when visitors use only their headlights, it said.

In Budapest’s Pál-Völgyi Cave, presentations will be held to the public about bats and the role they play in the ecosystem.

In the Szemlő Caves, public lectures will be organised about how the experts had discovered, accessed and explored the cave, one of the visitors’ favourite sites.

Tours will also be held at the revamped Lóczy Cave north of Lake Balaton, as well as “hidden caves” and archaeology sites in the region.
