Action sports, adventure events and music festivals in Hungary

Hungary, in central Europe, is particularly rich in water. Turkish and Roman influence led to the popularity of mineral spas, including thermal Lake Hévíz. The numerous lakes in Hungary encourage many water-based extreme sports such as wakeboarding, water skiing, kitesurfing and windsurfing.

Budapest, the capital, is a great place for architecture with landmarks from Buda’s medieval Castle Hill and grand neoclassical buildings along Pest’s Andrássy Avenue to the 19th-century Chain Bridge.
