Ferde waterfall

This thrilling waterfall is located in one of the Mecsek's most picturesque valleys. It was called for the sloping layers of Cretaceous Period bench limestones on which the water flows (the Hungarian word 'ferde' means'sloping'). As a result, the waterfall fed by the Bánya Creek runs slowly in some areas and rapidly in others. The wild romantic valley, located between bánya and Kisjbánya, is home to several wonders. Along with the Ferde waterfall, you should not miss the Csepeg rock or the breathtaking view from the Cigány Hill Lookout. Aside from the waterfall, the landscape hides a plethora of interesting and beautiful sights.

If you're searching for one of those picture-perfect walks you've seen in vacation brochures where kids play in a tiny stream with wonderful vistas behind them, the waterfall trek at Ferde is the place to go. There are amazing rock formations all throughout this trip that demand to be explored up up and personal. The hiking trail is beautifully covered in little brown stones and is broad enough to enable many hikers walking side by side. This 34-mile track has a very modest uphill grade, but it is still extremely achievable for the entire family.
