In the Virág ValleyPhoto: Dömsödi Áron, Hungarian Hiking Association
The well-established endurance hikes include the Yellow 70, one 20-kilometer section of which follows the last 20 kilometers of the yellow route connecting Esztergom and Budaörs, from Hűvösvölgy to Budaörs.
The route following the yellow marking runs north-south in the Budai Hills. The hike starting in the south from Hűvösvölgy can also be completed as a guided tour. Among the short sections, this covers the most viewpoints: Nagy-Hárs Hill, the Sorrento rocks, the saddle of Huszonnégyökrös Hill, and Törökugrató all offer wonderful perspectives over the Buda landscape. On this section, you can find the most wildflowers and the most military graves. Along the route stand the ruins of the Budaszentlőrinc monastery and the memorial posts of the Magas-kő quarry. We cross the tracks of the Children's Railway and also cross the beautiful forest wilderness of Virág Valley.
