Zengő, Mountain summit in Baranya County, Hungary.

Zengő reaches 682 meters in elevation, making it the highest point of the Mecsek Mountains in the southern region of Hungary.

The summit contains ruins of a medieval castle that was constructed on the foundation of a former Roman Empire guard tower installation.

The name translates to 'resonant' in English, connecting to regional tales of vanished treasure hunters whose sounds still echo within the mountain.

Visitors can reach the summit through marked trails starting from the towns of Pécsvárad or Hosszúhetény, with the T2 path leading directly to the top.

The mountain houses ninety percent of the total population of Paeonia officinalis ssp Banatica, a protected flower species native to the region.
