Hiking

Organising hiking trips for ELTE students (physical education course)

In the programme of the ELTE physical education we organise hikes in the regions around Budapest (Budai Hills, Vértes Hills, Pilis Hills, Visegrádi Hills) The hikes range from 5-20 km distances, easy or medium difficulty. 30 km long hikes are organised for advanced students and hikers at the weekends during the university semester.

Completing a hiking section does require some strength and stamina, but to compensate you, friendly atmosphere is always provided in our community. The hiking leaders always tryto do their best at providing some extra geological, botanical, historical knowledge during the hikes. We often organize hikes along the National Blue Trail/Circle hiking movement (OrszágosKéktúra/Kékkör). You might have the opportunity to travel to a spot far away from the capital city.

Those who have signed up for the Hiking course have several options to complete the course. A total of 5 points must be earned during the semester. We organise two types of hikes: beginner (1 point) and advanced (2 points). Anyone can take part in the beginner hikes, but the advanced ones are more serious challenges. These are still manageable with some stamina, determination and appropriate clothing.

You have several options to earn 5 points:

First and foremost: buying a pass (free of charge for ELTE course members).

Click here. After the registration you will receive a QR code. Please always have the code with you on your phone/printed out. These is how we register and count how many events you have attended.

You may also choose from the following options.

  1. Taking part in our guided hikes at the weekends (advertised in advance) You can find our current hiking schedule here.
    The hiking trips are mainly organised at weekends in different regions of Hungary. A hike only falls on a weekday in the autumn and spring break/other school breaks, public holidays.
    The hiking trips are posted on our Facebook page minimum one week before the trip.
    Depending on the difficulty, 1 or 2 points are awarded for one occasion. At the beginning of the trip, you will be asked to show your QR-code. This is how our hiking leaders identify the participating students.
    You will earn 3 points for the multi-day hike (organised/semester) if you take part in the entire programme.
    One face-to-face participation is necessary/semester.
    Our planned hikes are available here.
  2. We also have pre-planned instant hikes that can be completed individually any time during the semester. To complete thesehikes, you only need a smartphone. Thanks to thee GeoGo app you can verify the checking points during the hike, so as well at the start and finish point. We recommend you register in the GeoGo app with the email address you are provided in Neptun to help you identify yourself.
    All information about using GeoGo is available at www.geogo.hu. You have to download the app on your phone. After the registration choose the “Útvonalak a közelben” from the menu.
