Hungary is a numberone destination among those who want to lose themselves in the humming forests while they are chasing game. Red deer, fallow deer, wild boar, mouflon and roe can all be found (and shot) here, just as the European hare, the pheasant, the grey partridge, the bean goose, the greater white-fronted goose, mallard, Eurasian teal and the Eurasian woodcock. But it isn't really about the shooting,  but more of the meditative state of mind and the excitement that the hunt brings. You should try it!

Nothing compares to the feeling of exploring a country's wonders using nothing but your own two feet. Put on your boots and off you go – climb onto the Dobogókő (according to some esoterically inclined, the heart-chakra of the earth can be found here – well, see for yourself, we say), gather colourful minerals from the old bauxite-mines of Bakony, marvel at the ‘basalt-organs' of the Saint George mountain or the snow-white rhyolite-fields near Kazar. Pure nature in all its beauty. You won't feel lost – tourist trails are marked (look for the colourful signs on the trees), but professional guides will lead you along unmarked trails if you wish so. Oh, and night timetours are pretty exciting, too! Make sure to include one of the numerous natural reserves into your tour and marvel at the untouched beauty of nature – watch Hungarian Grey cattle at the National Park of Hortobágy, catch a glimpse at the colourful birds of the Lake Tisza Bird Reservation, check out the buffalo at the Buffalo Reserve of Kápolnapuszta and climb the mountains of Pilis at the Pilis Biosphere Reserve.

Don't miss out on the natural wonders of Hungary. Head out into the wild, whether on boat, by bike, on your two feet, catching fish, hunting deer or watching birds – it's a whole new world waiting to be explored.
