Bakony, Mountain range in Veszprém County, Hungary
The Bakony Mountains stretch across western Hungary for 110 kilometers, featuring limestone formations, dolomite cliffs, and dense forest landscapes between Lake Balaton and Little Alfold.
The region contains numerous prehistoric settlements, with archaeological evidence revealing continuous human presence through caves and excavation sites dating back several thousand years.
The mountain settlements maintain Hungarian folk traditions through regular events featuring regional music performances, traditional dances, and local craft demonstrations.
The mountain range includes a network of marked hiking paths connecting various peaks, with Kőris-hegy at 706 meters offering the highest elevation point.
The limestone composition of Bakony creates natural water filtration systems, resulting in multiple springs emerging at the mountain edges with annual precipitation reaching 800 millimeters.
