10 Outdoor Activities in Budapest That You Shouldn't Miss

October 5, 2021 Layne Dawes

Over 15 million gallons of water bubble daily into Budapest's 118 springs and boreholes. The city of spas offers an astounding array of baths, from the sparkling Gellert Baths to the vast 1913 neo-baroque Szechenyi Spa to Rudas Spa, a dramatic 16th-century Turkish pool with original Ottoman architecture. The "Queen of the Danube" is also steeped in history, culture and natural beauty. Get your camera ready for the Roman ruins of the Aquincum Museum, Heroes' Square and Statue Park, and the 300-foot dome of St. Stephen's Basilica.

I Like EBike

One of the most unique and exciting ways to explore a city as picturesque as Budapest is on vintage electric bikes. We opened eBikes in Budapest, cause the city is hilly and thanks to our eBikes and local guides we can take you to all places without breaking sweat. Tour groups are kept as small as possible, normally between 2-10person, making them very personal, safe and always good fun. We are looking forward you. I Like eBike team Budapest
