New temporary boat service will operate in Budapest
Change language:
There will be a new boat route available in the Hungarian capital, but only for 9 days, during the Budapest World Athletics Championships.
By boat to the third biggest sporting event in the world
A spectacular, comfortable and fun way to get to the World Athletics Championships.
Balázs Németh, CEO of Budapest 2023 Nonprofit Ltd, the organising company of the event, emphasised at the press conference held on Sunday morning: in cooperation with the organising committee, MAHART will operate boat services between Batthyány Square and the MÜPA boat station, from where the entrance to the National Athletics Centre is a short walk away. The journey takes just 15 minutes.
Németh said that there will be limited parking available at the venue, which is why it is important to introduce other means of transportation. According to the CEO, this is a green event, which is why they did not want to pave over the Danube bank.
