What else does the wider Balaton - North destination have to offer?
The wider Balaton - North destination offers additional cultural and nature experiences. Boat trips are available in the Tapolcai-tavasbarlang, which also has the guided exhibition “Csodálatos karszt” (“Wonderful Karst”). The cave is part of an underground cave system beneath the town that has been explored to a length of 14.6 kilometers.
Geology can also be explored at Hegyestű: the 337-meter-high mountain lies between Zánka and Monoszló. There, the interior of a basalt volcano that was active about eight million years ago is exposed. A viewpoint on the western edge of the quarry site features a panoramic information board that helps visitors identify the surrounding hills; there is also a rock garden featuring characteristic rock types of Transdanubia.
The wider destination offers other themes for visitors with different interests: Badacsony combines hiking trails and panoramas with distinctive geological formations, the basalt organ pipes. Grapes for Badacsony wine are grown on its slopes. In Herend, a permanent exhibition and changing exhibitions showcase the history of the porcelain manufactory.
