2025 Pakozd Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

If you're tired of bathing in the lake, it's worth looking around the Lake of Venice as well. There are hiking trails and look out towers around Sukoro and Pakozd. You can admire beautiful birds in the reeds of the Mosquito Island. Fortunately, I was there at noon and contrary to the name of the island, there were not many mosquitoes. I try not to forget to put the insect repellent in my small backpack. You can go around Lake Venice by bus leaving near train stations like Velence, Kápolnasnyek or from Szekesfehervar bus station. #city #travel #nature #travel #reed #birds

I have already mentioned that big hussar statue at one of the travel moments, but only now I understood why the statue was made. There is a military memorial park near Pákozd in memory of all the soldiers and civilian victims who died in the wars. The interesting thing is that I also found huge statues there. Perhaps they made such large statues to attract more attention. Children love them anyway. The huge hussar statue made of about 100 tons of concrete, it is the largest lead soldier in the world. The name of the hussar is "Miska". You can visit them by bus leaving near train stations like Velence, Kapolnasnyek or from Szekesfehervar bus station. #travel #park #militaryhistory #military

Pakozd village is close to a protected area where you can find the celebrated Ingókövek ('balancing rocks'). These weather-rounded granite blocks—Pogány-kő, Oroszlán-szikla, Kocka and others—rose to the surface as overlying gneiss eroded, making Pákozd the only Hungarian site with textbook granite tors. There's way-marked trail from the village center to the protected area. As you can see in the pictures, I actually found a rock that looks very unstable. You can try your luck maybe you can find more. If you aren't satisfied with the rocks you can enjoy the view of the Lake Venice or you can visit the huge hussar statue on the edge of the village. #travel #rockformation #hiking #nature #view #forest #lake
