Zsíros-hegyi turistaház, Mountain shelter between Nagykovácsi and Solymár, Hungary
Zsíros-hegyi turistaház is a mountain shelter situated on a hill between Nagykovácsi and Solymár at about 420 meters elevation. The main building contained two restaurants and offered sleeping quarters for approximately 40 guests.
The shelter was built in December 1928 by the Friday Table group of the Hungarian Tourist Association and named after Vencel Fritsch. It received renovations in 1935 and a scout center addition in 1936, ceasing operations by 1986.
The facility served as a central meeting point for the Hungarian Speleological Society, providing equipment and access keys for exploring the nearby Solymár Devil's Cave.
The location lies away from main roads and requires some walking to reach. Visitors should come prepared with hiking shoes and basic gear, as only ruins remain today.
The Hungarian Speleological Society used the site as a hub for cave exploration, providing access to the nearby Solymár Devil's Cave. A memorial on the northern peak honors István Kauzál, the table society president.
