Ride the Zugliget Chairlift above the forest canopy of the Buda hills. At the top, climb the lookout tower for a view across Budapest before heading back down or hiking part of the way.
Full description
The Zugliget Chairlift carries passengers up a wooded hill in Budapest's XII district, ending near the János Hill lookout tower with views over the city. Visitors can buy a return ticket or ride one way and walk the other, and it pairs naturally with the Children's Railway and the cog railway for a full loop in the Buda hills.
