    We visited Normafa park and had a great day out visiting the various trail options and attractions With way easily accessible trails, scenic views and historical buildings Normafa park is a great place to visit and get out of the city. With food options and public accessible seating, benches and fire pits, the park is perfect for picnics or bbq lunches and is extremely popular in summer. There is also a variety of walking and riding trails for mountain bike enthusiasts. Highly recommend to visit and get out amongst nature.

    I really like this place, full of positive energy, good for cycling, chilling, gathering. It has very beautiful sceneries. You can go there with bus easily. There are public restrooms in it. Also it has some cafes for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    This place is truly stunning and will surely catch your eye. It's the perfect spot to spend time with your friends and have a blast. Kids will have plenty of fun too, thanks to the play areas. The location is perfect for leisurely walks, forest climbs, cycling, barbecuing, sunbathing, and simply unwinding. I highly recommend visiting this place. You'll be pleased to know that it's easily accessible via public transportation, and there are also several parking lots available if you're driving. In addition, there are convenient amenities such as a store, restaurant, and restrooms. So, don't worry about a thing and take in the beauty of nature at this magnificent destination.

    I wouldn't really add anything new to the many reviews this hill and forests already have. You just have to go (it's only one bus ride from the city, and the route is enjoyable too) and see it for yourself. If you want to be immersed in the nature and have relaxing walks far from the city, then this is one of the places in Buda you can do that. Apart from the area in which you can have stunning views on Pest and beyond, which can be busy, as soon as you venture in any path you'll be almost alone.

    Stunning views over Budapest. Great place for activities such as walking, cycling or running. There are benches and allocated fire pits to use for a picnic with friends and family. There is a playground by the lawns, which is very well kept, for children to play. Tip: If you want to secure your fire pit, table and benches, make sure to arrive early morning, otherwise they will be taken by 9-10 am.

    Unfortunately we didn’t pick up a proper day for Normafa 😅 It was windy and drizzling a bit 🌧️ But we still enjoyed our stroll in the park and the lookout tower view. It’s a perfect place for hiking :)

    Place was good. No snow at the moment on 31st Dec 2023 but you can reach final destination of Normafa hill and it's worth visiting. Food prices are normal in the park. Will to be too good if there is snow. I visited 2022 Feb as well, there was snow ❄️ and my son enjoyed it!!! Rope car or chair car is available in Normafa.

    A great place to start your day workout. Not crowded in the mornings - 6-7 AM. If you're looking for a silence boost to balance your busy day, that's one of the places where to start.

  • 5/5 Mridul J. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the closest and easiest places to go for a hike and out from the city rush. And also the best view of the city.

  • 5/5 Joe D. 11 months ago on Google
    Beautiful park used by many people on the weekend. Many trails, food and washroom facilities. Of railway to get to the park from town and ski lift (2,000 Huf return trip usable up to one year.)

    A very nice place to visit for a weekend.. a peaceful place in Budapest. You can go for a small hike. After getting off the bus, go through trees. You can find a playfield for kids, small cafes, a good restaurant where you can find langos (a famous food of budapest) but this restaurant is closed in Monday. A breathtaking view you can find from the top of normafa where you can see the whole city landscape. It was an amazing experience. You can find a lot of people playing with dogs. People were hiking with families and friends. Overall worth a visit. We took the Cog- wheeled train from in-front of Hotel Budapest. And we came back with bus 212 to the city centre. Loved the train journey as well. 😍

    This is the best place to see a night panorama of Budapest. We visit this place once or a few times every year. You can come up by car or bus.

    When you're lucky enough to get snow up there it's beautiful and even places to sleigh. Delicious Hungarian food is in brand new booths. Hot wine too!

    "He that believeth the Son shall see life. He that believeth not the Son shall not see life, and the wrath of God abideth on him." when you go to a place like that at a time like that, you can only think about greatness and beauty.

    Normafa , originally Viharbükk ( German :Wetterbaum) popular hiking and skiing area Budapest XII. district on the eastern edge of the Buda Mountains , part of the Buda Landscape Protection District . Normafa itself is a small park-like clearing surrounded by trees, from which the winding Harang Valley starts towards the Zugliget . From the top of the clearing, an almost semi-circular panorama opens onto the deep valley of the Ördög ditch , behind which the Hármashatár hill and Rózsadomb rise, to the left of them Pesthidegkút , to the right the inner districts of Budapest and the Danube , and behind them you can see the Buda and Pilis mountains north of Normafa . In clear weather , the distant Gödöllő hills behind the Pest plain can also be recognized, sometimes behind it the Mátraits contour is also outlined. In summer, in good weather, the surroundings of the Hármashatár mountain can be admired, and in winter, sledders and skiers take possession of it.

    A place to go for hiking/ nature walk and barbecue in winters. You can either walk up or use the zugliget chairlift to arrive at the viewpoint tower. The place is accessible by public transport also, but you will still have to hike up to reach the view point

    A nice place outside of city.. Bus ride of 30 mins takes you here. Excellent view of the city and on the one side you can see Elizabeth Lookout and on the otherside Hungarian Parliment..

😠 A Népsziget olyan mint egy elhagyott szeméttelep. Romos épületek, ipari ingatlanok elhagyottan, lepusztulva, kidobott lomok, szemét mindenütt. Hajléktalanok táboroznak több helyen. Siralmas látvány! Többet érdemelne ez a Budapest szívében lévő kis zöld folt!
