Csesznek - Kömosó hegy (Futrinka ucca vasalt ut / Ferata Futrinka ucca)

Access to the starting point:
Leave the Tornyszentmiklos - Budapest / Budapest motorway at the Balatonvilagos exit and drive north towards Keszthely, Balatonfüred. In Balatonfüzfő turn right towards Veszprem Castle. In Veszprem, go towards Györ and later Zirc. From here, drive for another ten minutes and then you will see the turn-off for Csesznek on the right. In Csesznek, you can leave your vehicle in the large parking lot under the ruins of Cseszneki var, or go to Vasut ut (down the first street on the left) and park there in a suitable place.

Path description:
In Vasut ut you will see tourist information boards and signs for Vasalt ut. Go left here, over the small bridge and then along the forest to the foot of the cliff. Continue to the right and you will reach the first steel cable. The path ahead leads through the Kömosó Szurduk gorge, where the Ostromlok utca ferry forks first to the left, the Varpanorama ferry to the right, and we continue to a bench.
The path becomes more challenging further on, and we continue up to a small cliff, where the ropes appear. There is a vertical climb up the scrambles, followed by a traverse to the right on the chocks. This is followed by a passably easier section, then over a short suspension bridge to a section with difficulty C. After this section, the route becomes easier again, and we cross a little to the right, where we join the Varpanorama ferrata (difficulty D), and a few steps further on we are already at the top.
From the top, we can see the ruins of Cseszneki var.
I should mention that the Hungarian ropes are thicker than those in Slovenia and Austria (fi 1. 5 cm) and it is necessary to adjust the lanyards.
