Hello Hikers!
To make this dark cold long winter a bit more cheerful we prepared a special hike for you to an underrated destination west of Budapest, the wine region of Mór!
GET YOUR TICKETS ONLY FOR 5490 FT
Mór is primarily famous for its white wines, especially the variety called ‘ezerjó’ there is much more to see around as the small town is nested just underneath the steep hills of Vértes which is dotted with plenty of natural and medieval sights, ruins and castles. The area is traditionally inhabitated by the German minority who were famous for their versatile craftmanship, so no wonder that one of the natives received a Nobel price in physics just last year!
On our one-day hike we climb up to the fortress of Csókakő to get a stunning view on the diverse landscape, continue in the forests of Vértes along scenic ridges and cliffs and eventually descend to the center of Mór to learn a bit about the famous local wine culture
The length of the hike: 15 km, 400 meters ascend and descend
Duration of the hike: approx. 5 hours
Difficulty: This hike is doable for everyone!
