Selected alternatives for you
    In the Kékestető circular route starting from Mátrafüred, the goal is to conquer Kékes. On this medium-length route, you need to overcome almost 1000 meters in elevation, so the route requires a good level of fitness. It is worth climbing up to the Kékestető lookout tower, from where a breathtaking panoramic view unfolds.
