A route through the Börzsöny forest to the tower with a view of the Danube Bend · About 4 km each way · 3–4 h there and back · Free

The route
Above Nagymaros rises Hegyes-tető, one of the first hills of the Börzsöny, crowned by the Julianus lookout tower, dedicated to the friar who in the 13th century went in search of the Hungarians who remained in the east. From the top you see the bend of the Danube with Visegrád opposite. From Nagymaros-Visegrád station, cross the bridge over the tracks and follow the blue trail: it is about 4 km of steady climbing through the forest, passing the Kövesmező meadow. Allow three to four hours there and back with stops.
Bear in mind

Bring water and hiking footwear; in winter, the path may be icy.
Come down in time for the ferry to Visegrád or the return train.
