WESTERN HUNGARY

Western Hungary offers many diverse and exciting opportunities for tourism, with national parks, historical landmarks and elegant, splendid palaces awaiting all who come to visit. The majestic panorama of lake Fertő, the historic benedictine abbey of Pannonhalma, and the almost mediterranean streets of Pécs, as well as the wines and gastronomic wonders, complete the unforgettable experience of your visit to the region.

The delightful little streets and squares of Győr, the old company signs on the houses and the narrow alleys – all of these take us back in time. The buildings, the museums, the churches and the Esterházy Palace all house a wealth of treasures.

Sopron is located next to the Austrian border, and is well known to be our “most loyal town.” The centrepiece of the town is its iconic Fire Tower, symbolising its revival in Baroque grandeur after the medieval city was ravaged by flames in 1676.

The UNESCO Heritage landscape of Fertő attracts cyclists and hikers, and ornithologists to the bird reserve in the Fertő-Hanság National Park. Lake Fertő itself naturally welcomes those seeking a bit of relaxation, be they cyclists, anglers or water-sports enthusiasts, with a relaxing spa awaiting you at Bükfürdő.

Feel free to visit any and all of the cellars and press houses, and sample the creative gastronomy and vinotherapy treatments enjoyed at high-end spas. You’ll also find healing waters at nearby Harkány, helping

cure sufferers of rheumatism for 200 years.
