Exploring the Beautiful Waterfall in Hungarian Countryside
Introduction:
Welcome to this special Hungarian documentary-style video where we embark on a journey to find a hidden waterfall in the picturesque Hungarian countryside. Although it has been a while since our last Hungarian adventure, we are excited to share this experience with you. So, let's dive into this unique and beautiful exploration!
Background:
Having lived in Hungary for almost three years, I, a British expat, have come to appreciate the beauty and tranquility of this country. While Hungarian life may not be commonly discussed, I wanted to showcase the wonders it has to offer. Hence, we decided to search for a waterfall near Lake Balaton, in the ICA region, known for its stunning landscapes.
Finding the Waterfall:
Before beginning our expedition, we consulted a map to determine the exact location of the waterfall. Realizing that we had to retrace our steps and travel 23 kilometers back to the village of Kishloud, we knew it would be worth the effort. We anticipated a two to three-hour hike, hoping that the recent heatwave did not dry up the waterfall completely.
Hiking to the Waterfall:
Our journey commenced, and we found ourselves entering the enchanting Hungarian forest. Surprisingly, the serene ambiance provided a stark contrast to the bustling environment of the UK. Unlike our usual hikes where we frequently encountered dog walkers and fellow hikers, the Hungarian countryside offered an undisturbed and tranquil experience.
Quietness of Hungarian Countryside:
In this section, we discussed the stark contrast between the peacefulness of hiking in the Hungarian forest and the lively paths of the UK. We reflected on the absence of human presence during our hike and marveled at the serenity of the Hungarian countryside.
First Glimpse of the Waterfall:
After a moderate hike, we felt a rush of excitement as we approached the waterfall. However, our anticipation was slightly dampened by the presence of quad bikes in the vicinity. Nevertheless, our spirits remained high as we braved the steep descent to witness this natural wonder.
Exploring the Waterfall Area:
Upon reaching the waterfall, we were greeted by a mesmerizing sight, albeit slightly smaller than anticipated. Due to the recent dry spell, there was not an abundant flow of water. Nonetheless, the beauty of the waterfall, with its clear, refreshing pools, captivated our senses. We immersed ourselves in its cold waters, relishing the moment.
Camping and Cooking in the Area:
The area surrounding the waterfall provided an ideal spot for camping. With benches and facilities for outdoor cooking, it offered a sense of freedom and tranquility. We discussed the convenience of setting up camp and cooking our own food while marveling at the crystal-clear water that, unfortunately, was not suitable for drinking.
Drinking Water Safety:
While the temptation to drink water straight from the ground was strong, we chose to exercise caution. Reflecting on previous experiences, where I was scolded for drinking natural spring water on camera, we opted for tap water instead. However, we acknowledged the purity of the water and the freedom Hungary offers for camping and outdoor activities.
Conclusion:
As our adventure came to an end, we reflected on our love for Hungary and the joy it brings us to share this unique way of life with our audience. The beauty of the Hungarian countryside, the tranquility of its forests, and the allure of hidden waterfalls continue to captivate us. We hope this insight into Hungarian life reignites your wanderlust and encourages you to explore the mesmerizing landscapes Hungary has to offer. Until next time, stay tuned for more crochet crafting fun and exciting adventures!
