Balás Jenő Bauxitbányászati Múzeum és Földtani Park Geológiai Látogatóközpont

A really impressive sight to see if you're in the area. It really does look like Mars. It's not too big but you can definitely walk around and make pictures for an hour or more if you have kids. There is also a museum in an abandoned mine shaft. There is tons of information in Hungarian and English. You can also see old mining equipment and little trains and carts.

Very interesting place worth to go. Easy for parking next to the gate.
Except the exploring site, there is a small museum introducing the background of the Bauxite mining and sorts of different samples of stone rock & sand.
Children friendly.
Only a mobile toilet close to the museum.

Nice place to have a walk and see geology. There are checkpoints to be followed with interesting facts, but you can walk around freely if you want. The view is beautiful, especially from the end point of the mine

The bauxite mine itself is closed due to the pandemic restrictions but the outside area can be visited. The parking lot can accommodate plenty of cars. Kids love the Mars lookalike and the rocks come in a huge variety of colors. It gets quite busy but the area is so large that it allows for phisical distancing. There are also other areas to visit like the hill on the other side of the road or the surrounding forest.

A comprehensive exhibition about the history of the Hungarian aluminium industry and bauxite mining. A lot of bilingual tableau with a huge amount of information, spectacular exhibition of the tools and vehicles used in the mine. The open air study trail is also informative but what I liked the most was the beautiful formations caused by the open-cast mining. Enjoy my photos.

Really cool place to hike and explore. A bit hectic with hikers, mountain bikers, and dirt bikes, but worth visiting for a day. Feels a bit like another planet.

A beautiful place to walk. A former bauxite mine, the vast areas of red dirt now have pockets of greenery. Very beautiful and serene.

Had a lovely 2 hour long walk here!

Special place near the village with really interesting landscape. We were interested in the outside sights (remains of the mining), so we didn't visit the museum part. The facilities are really simple (almost nothing), for example no restaurants or food stands worked during our visit (I don't know if they have these at all), but the roughly one hour stay on the yellow and red hills was fine without them and definitely was a good experience.

More excited than you can imagine, of you allow yourself to think of the meaning of the description it is really fun and shocking at the same time. Recommended with kids :)

Awesome unique experience. The geological museum was also interesting as someone interested in geology. The landscape is like being on Mars, and the educational tour is also great.

Friendly, calm and interesting.

Just as if you were on Mars. My kids want to visit on a monthly basis. Has a nice museum with old mining equipment.

Former bauxit mines. Attractive technical exposition inside and the and lovely walk in outer mines. Red rocks.

Good bauxit geology explanations, interesting mine tools an machinery

Very interesting and beautiful place, definitely worth checking out.

Nice path walk with info boards around the disused open cast bauxite mine.

Must see

Worth to see it, especially if you interested retro sci-fi scenes :-)

Martian territory on mother earth. Must see.
