What to expect

We will show you around, walking in the village, with the option to enter local people’s home, those who are selling handmade treasures (textile, pot etc.)

We will take you to the Castle of Hollókő, which is right next to the Village

If you like hiking and fresh air, we will take you to the viewpoint called “The Palm of God”. This is 3 km's away from the castle, meaning you should be prepared for a hiking of 6km's in total (3.7 miles). In case if you do not want to do the hiking part, you will spend more time in the village and you can take a walk in the forest trail which is an easy but peaceful walk in nature - also recommended for nature lovers.

The viewpoint is a great spot to take pictures as well.

Once we arrive back in the village, you will have a 3 course lunch with a soft drink included. You can choose to have the traditional Hungarian menu, called “Palócleves” and „Palócpecsenye” or you can go for vegan / gluten free option.
