Csúcs-hegy

Csúcs-hegy is a mountain peak in Budapest that rises about 450 meters above sea level and overlooks the city and surrounding area. The slopes are covered with woodland vegetation and limestone formations that shape the landscape.

The mountain has served for centuries as a landmark for travelers and merchants making their way to Budapest. This long-standing role as a navigation point made it important for anyone approaching the city.

Local people use these slopes regularly for walking and enjoying green space away from urban bustle. The open terrain makes it a natural gathering place for anyone seeking fresh air and outdoor time.

The hiking trails are clearly marked and allow access from several starting points, with information signs and rest spots along the way. Wear sturdy shoes and choose your route based on your fitness level.

On clear days, the summit offers a full view of both banks of Budapest and the curve of the Danube flowing through it. This vantage point reveals both the modern urban areas and the older parts of the city in one sweep.
