Kemenes Volcano Park Visitors’ Centre is Hungary’s single such centre focusing on volcanology. It presents the power of volcanoes and the enormous geological changes occurring out of the blue. We can learn what the activity of volcanoes may have been like millions of years ago; what is it like today, and how the catastrophes caused can be forecast. The five-storey building stretching on appr. 1,000 m2 offers number of attractions: Exploration Room, Hall of Volcanoes, Verne Cabin, Simulation Room, Volcano Theatre Room, the room introducing the Volcanoes of the Carpathian Basin, and the Lookout Room. From the latter visitors can admire the breathtaking view of Mount Ság, and the tamed contours of the one-time volcano will be within arm’s reach.

Nature hikes and tours
The area of the mount boasts much warmer and drier climate than that of plains and it is therefore an isle of unique flora and fauna. Its characteristic plants include the wintergrass, the pheasant’s eye, the Great Pasque Flower, the burning bush and different ornamental grasses and during the nature tours you can see all of them.
Dates:
Positive energies surging from the breakpoint of the Earth make a beneficial impact on us. Humans have been able to feel these energies at various points and places since the very early times and have held these spots in due respect.
Similarly to the Attila Hill in Tápiószentmárton, Mount Ság is also claimed to be generating such positive energies. All you need to do is spend a few hours at the energy zones, take a leisurely walk in the crater, or do some hiking on the ridges, and you will feel the beneficial effects after a while
The winter break lasts until March 2015, until this date the Volcano Park only accepts groups.
