During the summer season, visitors can pamper themselves in 11 different pools, six of which are filled with thermal water. A number of facilities are available, including an indoor adventure pool, an indoor children's pool, two pools specially designed for children and a standard swimming pool. In the low season, six thermal pools are available, one of which is indoor, as well as an indoor adventure pool. It is important to note that the thermal pools do not circulate water. In addition, the Jurta resort has a twelfth pool, which is connected to the beach and is designed as a refreshment facility for guests.
The thermal baths of Bogács are just a few minutes' walk from the Kristály guest house!
Cellar row on Cserép road
The cellar area of Bogac has a centuries-old history and a special atmosphere. And thanks to the improvements made in recent years, it's a great place to come for a glass of wine, a chat with friends or an evening out. The fiery wines of the Bogač vineyards are produced in microclimate-blessed cellars carved into volcanic tufa and can be tasted in one cellar or walked from cellar to cellar. In recent years, large-scale cellar construction has begun in the most important villages of the Bükk wine region, including Bogács. In order to meet the needs of the authorities and the growing tourism sector, work is under way to expand and modernise the cellars. As a result, the cellars on Cserepi Street have become one of the region's best entertainment venues, where visitors can taste and buy quality wines during the day and listen to live music in the evening, even when there are no events.
Fishing lake
Another stream in the valley of the Hór is the Szoros. At the foot of the Bükk, less than 300 metres from the centre of the village, it has been tamed by a dam, and the artificial reservoir has been made suitable for fishing. The 20-hectare lake is not only a great place for anglers, but also for anyone who wants to relax. Its cultivated waterfront offers hikers a rain shelter and benches - and a fantastic panoramic view of the mountains. As the lake is a reservoir, you can expect sudden rises in water levels. Swimming in the lake is forbidden and no vehicles are allowed - except boats used for carp fishing.
Available fish: carp, amur, pike, perch, compo. Night fishing is also possible.
Opening hours: free to visit Fishing: Nov. 1-March. 31 Nov.: 6.00-19.00; 31 Apr. 1-Oct.: 5.00-21.00 Address: northwestern border of Bogács (Fenyő utca) Tel: 06 30/293-4049 Day ticket available: in the fishing shops of the village and at the on-site buffet
View from
From the top of the hill overlooking the village and the Bükkkalja, the Millennium Lookout offers a breathtaking view of the whole area. The hexagonal tower, built at the turn of the millennium, reaches its height not by stairs but by the elevated ground on which it stands. Its parapet is made of Bogache stone and is located on the ground. This tower remains in the village and is located near the Village Hall. As you look down from the picturesque lookout tower, the charming village of Bogács and its neighbouring settlements come into view. We turn our attention northwards, where the impressive southern beech is covered by centuries-old forests. Looking south, we can see the vast expanse of the South Borsodi Plain and the Hevesi Plain, which lies beneath the North Central Mountains.
Opening hours: free to visit Address: Szomolyai út
Village hall
In one of the oldest, 140-year-old farmhouses in Bogács, the Country House was set up to show the living conditions of landless peasants. A large segment of its furnishings is from collections, so the objects reflect the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Bogác Palóc folk costumes and clothing are also on display.
In the centre of the village stands the Roman Catholic church dedicated to St Martin, built from locally quarried reddish stone. When it was renovated in 1958, parts of the 13th century Romanesque period were found. It was rebuilt in Gothic style in the 14th century. Its tower can still be seen from several kilometres away.
