Balatonboglár Adventure Park

The Balatonboglár Adventure Park, one of the most popular adventure parks on the southern shore of Lake Balaton, is located next to the iconic Globe Lookout Tower and the Elevated Walkway. Attractions include a bob sled track, ropes course, climbing wall, tubing slope, archery, trampolines, PowerFan free-fall jump, inflatable playground, and a 3D ring ride. The venue is popular amongst families, groups of friends, school and kindergarten excursions, but it is also an excellent location for team-building corporate events.

Red and Blue Chapel

In Balatonboglár’s two extraordinary churches – the Red Chapel and the Blue Chapel – the focus is surprisingly not on religion, but on the excellent art exhibitions inside the walls that you can visit throughout the summer, from Tuesday to Sunday. We recommend to discover the chapels during a pleasant walk: both buildings are located on the hill in the cemetery, from where visitors can enjoy beautiful views of Lake Balaton.

Balaton Heritage Steamboat

You can enjoy a unique museum experience by visiting the harbor of Balatonboglár. However, don’t look for a traditional building – the exhibition is actually located inside the old ship at the waterfront. The steamship, built in 1872, has been restored and now houses a community space and a fascinating exhibition about shipping on Lake Balaton. Younger visitors can play in the children’s corner in the bow of the vessel.

Bugaszeg Brick Gallery and Farm

There are very few places in Hungary like the Brick Gallery in Balatonboglár – or, as its owner János Csere likes to call it, the Republic of Bugaszeg. Mr. Csere single-handedly built the museum and the memorial park, and he continues to expand them to this day. The ever-youthful architect is always delighted to personally guide curious visitors around the site, sharing its history with great enthusiasm – all for free.
