Őrség

The Őrség is one of the most diverse and richest part of today’s Hungary in terms of geography, ethnography and monuments. The landscape stretching from Göcsej in Zala to the Upper Rába region is a one-hour drive from Bük. It is truly wonderful in every season; there is no sign of monotony here, everything is full of color and shine, with surprises at every step.
One of Hungary’s most untouched landscapes awaits visitors with pure tranquility and harmony, as well as a number of interesting sights. The landscape and its captivating atmosphere can be discovered on two wheels, on foot or by car.
