Hungarian excursion sites you need to see before the Winter comes

Although Hungary is not the largest European country, it has very diverse geographical features. Thanks to this, you can go on a lot of different fascinating excursions in the country. You can go to forests, mountains, look for a lookout or a castle. You will find everything in Hungary. We will now present to you some of these excursions.

Excursion to the highest point of Hungary

If you want to go on a trip in Hungary, the Mátra is one of the best choices. The highest point of the country, the 1,024-metre-high Kékestető, is located in the Mátra Mountains. Arriving at the highest point, you can admire a stunning panorama from the TV tower. You can approach the mountain from several directions and through hiking trails. An important part of the mountain is the Forest Reserve. Here, you can find hundreds of giant old trees.

Trip to Lake Tisza

You can even go to a waterfront for an excursion. Many people would immediately think of Lake Balaton, but Lake Tisza should not be forgotten either. The lake artificially created in the 1970s is the second-largest lake in Hungary. Animals and the flora and fauna can be observed from sitting in a canoe. You can also find many species of birds, beavers, and otters. If you do not want to get on the water, ride a bike. It is worth visiting the Lake Tisza Ecocentre where  an entertaining interactive exhibition of 2,600 square metres awaits visitors.
