Hike to Spartacus Trail

Hike to Spartacus Trail

Join us on the weekend for a half-day hike in the Visegrád Mountains. The route follows a narrow hunting trail across the hillsides, with several viewpoints overlooking the surrounding valleys and ridges. Along the way, we’ll stop at a hut and can take a short detour to another viewpoint. The return route descends into a shaded valley, following a stream through old beech woods, with several crossings and small wooden bridges.

📅 Meeting Time and Place

🗺️ The Hike
Full track and description here. 12 km, 268 m elevation, 4 hours, easy difficulty. The trail has a few exposed sections, where you should watch your step (see the cover image of the event for illustration).

🚍 Transport
Take the 9:18 H7 train from Batthyány tér to Szentendre, then bus 870 to Pilisszentlászló. We aim to catch the same bus on the way back at 14:35 from Pilisszentlászló, then the train should take us to Budapest by 4 PM. A Pest County Pass is required to use public transport. I recommend parking near the football pitch, if you're by car.

🎒 Bring

• Drinking water. At least 1 L recommended. More, in case of hot weather.
• Snacks and essentials for a whole-day outing.
• Good hiking shoes.
• Protection against the sun (i.e. hat, sunscreen).
• Optional: swimming gear, if you want to go to the beach at Szentendre after the hike.

A maximum of 15 people can attend. Let me know if you're joining. Please also let me know by Saturday if you need to cancel.

See you in nature ∇
