Eger-Tokaj Hilly Wine Region

Every step is a new adventure  

Here we find the country's highest mountain, and smallest village, the first Hungarian language bible from the 16th century, and the oldest railway from the 19th century. The world renowned Hungarian wine, the Tokaji aszú, ages in the cellars of this region, while one of Europe's most beautiful horse tracks and biggest cave systems is also found here. Three of Hungary's eight UNESCO listed world heritage sites can be found here.

To reach the northern Hungarian region's closest city, we only have to travel sixty kilometers from Budapest. If we want to see its farthest boundaries, then our journey will take us to the banks of the Tisza river. The region's southern border is the Alföld, while Slovakia borders it to the north. The region's castles from the Middle Ages, its 16th and 17th century palaces, numerous churches, villages famous for their folkloric traditions and handicrafts, as well as famous historic towns are cradled amongst the five mountain ranges that we find there the Cserhát, Mátra, Bükk, Cserehát and Zemplén ranges.

Come exploring with us, in the region of -the most- and of distinct sights, where you will come to understand what it means where "Every step is a new adventure"!
