Holloko Var

Reviewed By OZS_ATW - Budapest, Hungary

It is just about 1 kilometre from the village to walk up to the Castle. Admission fee was HUF 1,200 per adult and it was worth every forint of it! It was nicely renovated with interesting rooms. The castle was one of the best I have ever visited in Hungary because it could give you the atmosphere of isolation, what it had been many centuries before. Also the surrounding area was breathtaking, you could see meadows, forests and even hear animals roaming.

Salgo Castle

Reviewed By MomOnTheGo2014 - Cheltenham, United Kingdom

So many people visiting just stick to Budapest. We were glad we made the 120 km drive north to visit this beautiful part of Hungary for the day. Salgo Castle was easy to find - the car park is large and free. Several trails lead up in the direction of Salgo Castle. The view is stunning. We visited in autumn, so it was even better than expected. Hiked up with our boys, ages 8 & 9 and we all found it very manageable. After a lovely picnic at Salgo Castle, we drove over to Somosko Castle, too -- which was very worthwhile. Great way to "make a day" of the trip up from Pest County when we were ready to spend some time away from the big city.
