Gulács, Volcanic mountain in Nemesgulács, Hungary.

Gulács is a 393-metre basalt witness hill of the Tapolca Basin in Hungary, rising west of Nemesgulács. Its slopes are scarred by a former quarry that operated until 1961, and basalt rock still shows in many places.

The name Gulács comes from the old Hungarian personal name Gula and first appears in written sources in 1268, when two settlements of that name existed, later three (Alsó-, Felső- and Középső-Gulács). Basalt was quarried on the mountain for road construction until 1961, and the scars of the quarry remain visible on its slopes.

The surrounding villages have used the volcanic soil for wine growing and farming for generations. This bond between the mountain and local ways shapes how people in the region live today.

The Országos Kéktúra long-distance trail crosses the mountain but does not go to the summit; it passes the Sér-kút spring on the slope. The summit is reached on the blue-triangle marked path. The quarry that operated until 1961 left scars visible on the hillside.

The Országos Kéktúra long-distance trail passes the mountain but does not go to the summit; the top is reached on the blue-triangle marked path, which also passes the Sér-kút spring on the hillside.
