Triassic period and several times again in later periods. The
Bukk rose above surroundings about 15 million years ago, then
as a result of continuous weathering, erosion, it has received its
present, characteristic form.
The Bukk plateau is the largest karst plateau in Hungary.
Sink-holes, water-holes and Viznyelo form enchanting karst
formations within the landscape and the Bukk plateau offers
some of the best views of the park.
Within the national park there are 26 hectares of land which are
home to the 300 year old Oserdo or Virgin forest. It is made up
of beech trees, some standing at 40 meters tall, and
moss-grown trunks laying on the forest floor are witnesses of old
times.
The area also treasures rare species of plants from the last ice
age that survived in small pockets under special ecological
conditions. Its variegated flora supports a similarly rich fauna.
Within the National Park are 11 locally and 17 nationally protected
nature areas.
Many people visit the Bukk National Park alone and enjoy their
trips,however, we truly believe that to get the most from your
short break you should use our guided tours which will allow you
to see the sights that are usually hidden from view and from a
safety aspect are much safer. The Bukk National Park is an
enormous park and tourists have been known to lose
themselves and need rescuing! Our guides are also well
informed about the fauna and flora too!
