Kopasz Hill, Tokaj, Summit and nature reserve in Tokaj, Hungary.
Kopasz Hill is a rounded summit in the Tokaj region where marked hiking trails lead visitors upward to observation points. From above, visitors can see the Tisza river valley and the stepped vineyards covering the slopes.
Vineyards were first planted here during medieval times and have continuously shaped the hill ever since. This long tradition transformed the region into one of Europe's well-known wine areas.
Wine growers work the sloped vineyards using methods passed down through generations, shaping how the landscape looks and how people live on the hill. The terraced gardens reflect the deep connection between local families and their work in this region.
The hill is reached via marked trails with varying difficulty levels that climb from different starting points. Depending on which route you choose, the walk can take from less than an hour to several hours.
A television tower stands at the summit and serves as both a broadcasting facility and a viewing point for those who reach it. From this vantage point, the vast expanse of the Hungarian plain stretches out in all directions.
