The Győri Sky Club association was among the first ones in Hungary , who started this paragliding near Balaton, in 1995, from the hill Csobánc. .

Paragliding is the recreational and competitive adventure sport: lightweight, free-flying, foot-launched glider aircraft with no rigid primary structure. The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing consisting of a large number of interconnected baffled cells. Despite not using an engine, paraglider flights can last 1–2 hours and covering some tens of kilometres .

In favour of your safety the instructor has insurance for tandem flying guests .

If you like extreme sport challenge, here is a real adventure for You:

Near Balatonederics, in the beautiful forest of the Balaton Uplands National Park there is the strictly protected, more than 5 km long Csodabogyós Cave.

What you should know about these extreme and exciting cave tour is that in contrast to caves open to the general public, here you will not be able to walk upright all the time.

  • Some parts can only be discovered on all fours, or even crawling on your belly. But do not worry, it will not happen too often, and you will get help when needed.
  • There are no lights in the cave. For your tour you will get a headlight, which enables you find your way and provides enough light to admire the beautiful formations you can see in the roomiest parts of the cave.
  • Temperature in Csodabogyós Cave is always +9.5 degrees Celsius in all seasons, the relative humidity is 100%. There is absolutely no chance for overflow or open surfaces of water. Water dripping and wet or muddy parts might occur in the course of the tour.
  • The entrance of the cave cannot be approached by vehicle. As part of your adventure, you will walk uphill about 40 minutes with us in the beautiful forest of Balaton Uplands National Park, from the base to the entrance of the cave.
  • Caving in normal clothing is not possible – or not too handy, that is. A protective helmet, a high-performance headlight and caving overalls will be provided to you for the duration of your tour.
  • For your safety an array of ladders, climbing ropes, stepping screws and other pieces of safety equipment have been mounted at dangerous spots.
  • You will be in good hands: our professional, experienced caving guides are at your service at all times during the tour.

To guarantee your safety, an insurance package for accidents and risks for the entire group is included in the caving program by the National Park.

Depending on your personality and confidence you can choose between the standard tour of 1.5–2 hours and the advanced tour of 3.5–4 hours. Caving overall, helmet and headlamp are provided for you. You only need to appear at the base building 30 minutes before the tour starts, wearing boots you don’t mind getting dirty and comfortable clothes.
