Buda Protected Landscape Area

The Buda Protected Landscape Area spans 105 square kilometers of forests, hills, and limestone cliffs across the northwestern region of Budapest.

Established in 1978, this protected zone emerged from the need to preserve natural ecosystems and geological formations in the expanding Budapest metropolitan area.

The excursion zone of Buda became a recognized tourist destination in the late 19th century, with locations like János-hegy and Hárshegy drawing visitors.

Visitors can access multiple walking paths and trails throughout the protected area, which connects directly to Budapest's urban infrastructure.

The Budaörs wasteland contains specialized plant species found only in the Carpathian basin, including the Hungarian seseli and Buda centaurea.
