Selected alternatives for you
    This year, in addition to the traditional Gaja Valley Santa Claus route, the organizers have also designed a playful little walk for the little ones.

    The aim of the route is to find pieces of a puzzle within 1 hour spent in the park. Once you have found the required number of puzzle pieces, you’re done, but keep an eye on the time to make sure you spend the full hour outdoors in the beautiful castle park, regardless of the season. Participants on the Walk distance and those returning from the longer route can meet Santa Claus in the Károlyi Castle park. During the route, children of all ages arriving at Vacakoló Vacok can entertain themselves with recycled toys and thought-provoking tasks made from natural materials. No one leaves Vacok without a gift!

    The route shown here is not mandatory, you can wander freely in the park as you like; the important thing is to find all the puzzle pieces!
