BÖRZSÖNY MOUNTAIN RANGE

These mountains offer numerous opportunities for hiking that can even be combined with taking the narrow-gauge railway. Special services can be booked.

Börzsöny is a medium mountain range of volcanic origin, most of which is a preservation area. The rim of the old crater is shaped by its highest peaks: Csóványos (938 m), Magosfa (916 m), Nagy-Hideg Hill (865 m) and Nagy-lnóc (813 m).The mountain range can be reached from several directions; there are shelter huts and hostels in the area. One of the nicest views: the mountains with the Danube Bend opens up before your eyes from Csóványos, while on Nagy-Hideg Hill a ski-track can be found.
