From Wednesday, 1 May, the car campsite closest to the heart of the Danube Bend will be open, whilst Danu Campsite, situated in the most beautiful part of Dömös, will be welcoming guests from 26 April.
The Visegrád car campsite has been popular with enthusiasts of this type of holiday for decades, as, as well as offering everything that caravan and motorhome enthusiasts look for and love, it also boasts two exciting extras.
One of these is a snack bar called Ételbárka, which is not only a charming little spot but also boasts a selection that is unrivalled in its own right. So there’s no need to step out of your slippers if, as a guest at the campsite, you fancy a tasty bite to eat or a refreshing spritzer or a good cup of coffee.
The other factor, of course, is the location. Opposite the Kék Duna campsite (you just have to walk across Road 11) is the banks of the Danube, from where, on the one hand, you can set out onto the water if you’re planning to do so, and on the other, it’s about a 5-minute walk to the The Visegrád Sports Ground, where you can hire canoes, but we’ll find the including the SUP hire service run by the outdoor.mafia team.
But if completeness is the goal in itself, then we can sit on the shore with nothing but a blanket, listen to the waves, and become one with the landscape…
Danu Campsite in Dömös It opened a few days earlier than its counterpart in Visegrád. It also joins the ranks of campsites that are widely popular amongst caravan owners, and there are certainly foreign guests who have been returning year after year for as long as 25–30 years to their favourite spot, on the banks of the Danube at Dömös.
The view from here is stunning. The sight of St Michael’s Hill directly opposite is probably one of the Danube Bend’s breathtaking wonders, whatever the season, but it is undoubtedly at its best in summer.
Although there are no small boats running to the other side these days, we can still easily make our way up to Remete Cave if we’re really in the mood for a bit of hiking whilst taking in the sights, or if we simply want to wave back to our less keen-on-hiking relatives from the top of the hill.
It takes about 15 minutes to cycle to Visegrád, then a similar amount of time by ferry to the other side; all that’s left is the return journey across to the other side, which also takes 10–15 minutes, and then you just have to climb up the marked path to the cave….
