Normafa Park - Trying to escape the concrete jungle of the busy city? Get ready to enjoy a unique daily hike in calm forests on the hills of Buda around the city. During a few hours walk in the beautiful nature, you are going to have breathtaking views on Budapest and hear interesting stories that you wouldn’t find in any guide book. I will take you to all the secret spots and lead you on off-the-beaten-path trails, which are not even known by most of the locals either. During the hike I will teach you how to read trail markers so you can’t get lost, even if you are alone without a map or GPS. I am a nature fan, I will also show you the little miracles of the woods. As I grew up here, you will have the chance to talk with me about life in Hungary, and there are no taboos in this conversation.
Join me and receive your surprise after the hike, a little gift for completing the hiking tour. It is going to be a real refreshment after the crowded, noisy city, nature is going to fill you up with energy! :)

You have to try this hike. - You have to do this light hike to get away from the busy city. Fall colors were beautiful and Laszlo is the best guide, very knowledgeable and just loves the outdoors. His passion for nature just shines through.

Nature Scape of Budapest - Laszko, our tour guide, shared hidden stories behind the forests we traveled through. The tour helped us appreciate the natural scenery of Budapest. Laszko was patient with our changing schedule and headcount! Thank you so much!

Amazing viewpoints from hike - This hike with Laszlo was definitely one of the highlights from my trip to Budapest and I have recommended it to literally anyone I’ve told about my trip. He was so knowledgeable about the history of Budapest, the woods around us and advising of things I’d never have known otherwise. The viewpoints were beautiful and they felt like a real treat after the hike. From the start point I wasn’t sure if I’d make it to the lookout tower but we did it and Laszlo was patient, chatty and made sure we moved at a comfortable pace. Highly recommend this original excursion in Budapest- thank you Laszlo!

The highlight of my trip! - This was such a fantastic experience whilst visiting Budapest. Laszlo was a great tour guide for our easy morning hike across the surrounding hills. It felt really personalised, walking whislt we chatted about all things nature, culture, history and life in general. The lookout tower provided an amazing and unrivalled view and being surrounding by forest was a refreshing break from the busy noise of the city. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see a different side of Budapest and I have not stopped talking about it since I returned home to the UK. Thank you Laszlo - I look forward to booking a future hike when I make it back over there! :)

Highlight at the Highest point of Budapest! - My hike with Laszlo from Trails of Budapest was so much more than what I expected. He is so knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of Budapest and pointed out a slow worm that isn’t a worm at all, wild mushrooms, death watch beetle trails and so much more. When he pointed out where we would hike to I wondered if I’d manage but he was so encouraging and before I knew it I was at the highest point in Budapest! I have to say, it was the highlight of my trip!

Do not miss! - The hike with Laszlo was the highlight of my time in Budapest! It was very special to escape the city and see the beautiful surrounding area that a visitor may not normally get to see while learning about the history of the city, the local flora and fauna along with the challenges faced and conservation efforts needed to keep this beauty for future generations. Laszlo clearly loves his job, and is full of stories and chat for the walk! I could not recommend joining him on a hike more! 10/10 recommend.

Fantastic experience and views - An amazing hike with Laszlo and such a nice way to experience the country, and city from afar. One of our favourite experiences whilst staying in Budapest and definitely not one to miss. For us it was also nice to escape the city for a few hours.

Wonderful hike in hills around Budapest - Was a great day out, with plenty of areas covered. Paths and trails all very easy and nothing too rough.
Pretty hot day, but the shade of most of the paths helped, and got some great shots of Budapest from a distance.

informative...spectacular...different - This was an amazing and memorable experience! Laszio's knowledge was only matched by his ability to convey it to us...and the wealth of information was so well suited to the exquisite terrain and scenery around us. If you're in Budapest or planning a trip there, do yourself a favour and step outside the usual, touristy highlights (although they are worth seeing too) to see another side of Budapest that too few tourists would know. Laszio combines history with information about nature, all while surrounded with spectacular beauty. Highly recommended!
