Central Transdanubia: The region stretches from the Danube to Lake Balaton with the enchanting countryside of the ancient block-mountain range of Transdanubia in the northwest, divided here into the Gerecse, the Vértes and the Bakony Hills. As we journey through the hills we can admire the splendid natural treasures and historic monuments, as well as small villages nestling in the valleys. River valleys, low basins, and gently rolling hilly areas make up the countryside, so varied in its geographical and climatic attributes, history and population.
